Answer:
Distance travelled in [tex]8 \frac{3}{4}[/tex] hours is 659.17 miles .
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
Jill drives [tex]75 \frac{1}{3}[/tex] miles every hour .
i.e
Jill drives [tex]\frac{226}{3}[/tex] miles every hour .
Now find out the distance travelled in [tex]8 \frac{3}{4}[/tex] hours .
[tex]Distance\ travelled = 8 \frac{3}{4}\times miles\ travelled\ every\ hour[/tex]
[tex]Distance\ travelled =\frac{35}{4}\times \frac{226}{3}[/tex]
[tex]Distance\ travelled =\frac{7910}{12}[/tex]
Distance travelled = 659.17 miles (Approx)
Therefore distance travelled in [tex]8 \frac{3}{4}[/tex] hours is 659.17 miles .
