According to the question

Charlene decided to ride her bike from her home to visit her friend Danny.

Three miles away from home, her bike got a flat tire and she had to walk the remaining two miles to Danny's home.

She could not repair the tire and had to walk all the way back home.

= 2 miles going + 5 miles returning - 3 miles on bike

By using PEDMAS rule, first we have to add  2 miles and 5 miles

= 7 miles total walking - 3 miles on bike

By using PEDMAS rule, next operation of order is to subtract

= 4 miles excess of walking than biking

Hence, Charlene walk 4 miles excess of walking than biking.
