Answer:

Gloria traveled 7.5 miles by bus.

Explanation:

Let the distance traveled by Gloria by bus was = x miles.

Since she walked 880 yards from the closet bus stop to her home.

These 880 yards = 880/1760 miles = 0.5 miles

Therefore form the statement of the question x + 0.5 = 8

x = 8 - 0.5 = 7.5 miles

Gloria traveled 7.5 miles by bus.
