The car makes one complete rotation about its circuit

every 36 minutes, at a fairly constant rate. Through how
many degrees would the car, which starts from its original
position, drives by the circuit from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM,
on the same day.

8 AM to 3 PM is 7 hours = 420 mins

Find how many rotations:
420 / 36 = 11.66666 rotations

Using ratio

1 rotation : 360 degrees

11.66666 : x degrees

x = 11.66666 / 1 * 360 = 4200 degrees
