Divide 2748 by 6 to find how much miles it travels in one hour. Then multiply that answer by 2 to find the total amount of miles traveled for 2 hours.

you can set up a proportion in order to get this answer. So if you're able to travel 2748 miles in 6 hours, then divide 2748 by 3  in order to get the distance for 2 hours. This should be equal to 916 miles in 2 hours.
