1) Therefore, the number of miles Sam travels flying from Columbus to San Juan is given as follows;

The number of miles Sam will have to travel flying from Columbus to San Juan = (The distance Sam flies from Columbus to Miami, Florida) + (The distance Sam flies from Miami to San Juan)

The number of miles Sam will have to travel flying from Columbus to San Juan = 995 miles +  1,033 miles = 2028 miles

The number of miles Sam will have to travel flying from Columbus to San Juan = 2,028 miles

Therefore, from Columbus to San Juan, Sam flies 2,028 miles

2) The number of more miles Sam has to fly to Kralendijk from Sam Juan is therefore;

The number of more miles Sam has to fly to Kralendijk from Sam Juan = (The total (flight) distance from Columbus, Ohio to Kralendijk, Bonaire) - (The number of miles Sam will have to travel flying from Columbus to San Juan)

The number of more miles Sam has to fly to Kralendijk from Sam Juan = 2,488 miles  - 2,028 miles = 460 miles.

The number of more miles Sam has to fly to Kralendijk from Sam Juan = 460 miles.
