To find out how many miles Amanda can jog in 4 hours at the same rate, you can set up a proportion based on the information given:

Amanda can jog 18 miles in 5 hours.

So, her rate is 18 miles / 5 hours.

Now, you want to find out how many miles she can jog in 4 hours, so you can set up the proportion like this:

(18 miles / 5 hours) = (x miles / 4 hours)

To solve for x (the number of miles she can jog in 4 hours), you can cross-multiply and then divide:

18 miles * 4 hours = 5 hours * x miles

72 miles = 5x

Now, divide both sides by 5 to solve for x:

x = 72 miles / 5

x = 14.4 miles

So, Amanda can jog approximately 14.4 miles in 4 hours at the same rate.
