I think that the redeemable miles will be 50% x distances for both segments. Just read the link provided above.
The link you provided is for SK - not SN, but of course in principle the same. For the long segment BRU-EWR the flight is not SN, but UA, however on an SN ticket (082). I think I have found the answer on UA's website here:

When flights are operated by United reddemable miles will be given based on fare regardless what airline has issued the ticket.

So the fare itself was extremely low - I think around 50 USD, but how do UA determine how much of that fare belong to the UA segment. The ticket consists of 4 segments where only 1 of them is UA,
