Answer:

440

Explanation:

Solve by setting up the equation

165miles/3hours = x/8hours

Make sure miles or hours are on the top or bottom and not cross cross. Since you're looking for miles after driving 8 hours.

you multiply diagonally

so 165 times 8 and 3 times X

so you have 1320=3x

then divide by three on each side to get x by itself

then x=440
