Answer:

8

Explanation:

We know that in 5 days they have travelled 2045 miles. This means that their per day average for travel is 2045/5=409 miles per day.

Now the distance left is 3272-2045=1227 miles.

And if we divide the average miles with the miles left, it gives us= 1227/409

=3

So, the total time taken for travel will be= 5+3=8 days

I guess this is the way to do it.
