Answer:

the distance covered is 26.87 miles

Explanation:

The computation of the distance covered is shown below:

As we know that

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

where

Speed is 8 2 ÷ 3 = 26 ÷ 3

And, the time required is 3 hours and 6 minutes i.e. 3 hours and 6 ÷ 60 = 3.1 hours

Now the distance covered is

= 26 ÷ 3 × 3.1

= 26.87 miles

hence, the distance covered is 26.87 miles
