The number of people travel more than 40 miles to work is 10 people.

The estimate of how far Tim travels is 45 miles.

How many people travel more than 40 miles to work?

45 - 50 miles = 5

40 - 45 miles = 5

35 - 40 miles = 5

30 - 35 miles = 5

25 - 30 miles = 5

20 - 25 miles = 5

15 - 20 miles = 15

10 - 15 miles = 15

5 - 10 miles = 35

0 - 5 miles = 25

Total = 120

Total number of people who travel more than 40 miles to work = 5 + 5

= 10 people

The estimate of how far Tim travels = (225 /600 × 120)

= (0.375 × 120)

= 45 miles

Therefore, Tim is estimated to travel 45 miles
