Let's find how far the boat travels in one hour. All we have to do is divide y by x. In this case, we divide 151.2 miles by 3.4.

151.2÷3.4

44 8/17

Let's multiply this by 2.2.

44 8/17× 2.2

97 71/85

So, it can travel 97 71/85 miles in 2.2 hours.

151.2 miles x miles

3.4 hours 2.2 hours


x miles = (151.2 miles * 2.2 hours) / 3.4 hours

x miles = 97.8 miles


answer

97.8 miles in 2.2 hours
