Answer: 440 miles

==================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the speed or rate of the car

distance = rate*time

rate = distance/time

rate = (275 miles)/(5 hours)

rate = 55 mph

If the bus traveled this same speed, and did so for 8 hours, then...

distance = rate*time

distance = (55 mph)*(8 hours)

distance = 440 miles
