Lorenzo and his family were on a road trip. His parents told him that they drove 252 miles during the first 312 hours of the trip. If they continued driving that pace for 5 more hours how many total miles would they have traveled so far?

Answer: 6.19 miles

Explanation:

1): First you have to divide 312 by 252 to get the miles per hour.

312 / 252 = 1.23

2): Secondly, multiple 1.23 by 5 hours

5 x 1.23 = 6.19
