Answer:

130 miles

Explanation:

First, let's determine the average distance the club went a day.


(78)/(3) = 26

The average distance the club went a day was 26 miles. Now let's figure out how far they can go in 5 days if they keep going the same average distance.

26(5) = 130

The club would travel 130 miles in 5 days if they maintained the same average speed.
