Given:

a.) Total of 2448 miles with a Roadtrip in 7 days.

b.) They travel 350 miles a day.

c.) The travelers drive an average of 60 miles per hour.

Let's determine how many hours per day must they drive.


\text{ 350 \lparen miles\rparen / 60 }\frac{\text{ \lparen miles\rparen}}{\text{ hour}}
\text{ }\frac{\text{ 350}}{\text{ 60}}\text{ hours}
\text{ = 5.8333... }\approx\text{ 5.8 hours}

Therefore, driving 60 miles per hour and traveling 350 miles a day, the travelers will be traveling 5.8 hours a day.
