For this case we can propose a rule of three:

715 miles ------------> 11 hours

x ---------------------------> 5 hours

Where:

x: Represents the number of miles driven in 5 hours. So, we have:


x=(5*715)/(11)\\x=(3575)/(11)\\x=325

Finally we have Tammy drove 325 miles in 5 hours.

Answer:

325 miles
