Answer:

A. Daniel

B. 2.73 miles

Explanation:

A. Determination of who travelled further.

For Wendy:

Time = 3.9 hours

Average speed = 68.3 miles

Total distance travelled =?

Average speed = Total distance / time

68.3 = Total distance / 3.9

Cross multiply

Total distance = 68.3 × 3.9

Total distance = 266.37 miles

For Daniel:

Time = 4.5 hours

Average speed = 59.8 miles

Total distance travelled =?

Average speed = Total distance / time

59.8 = Total distance / 4.5

Cross multiply

Total distance = 59.8 × 4.5

Total distance = 269.1 miles

SUMMARY:

Name >>>>>>>>>> Distance travelled

Wendy >>>>>>>>> 266.37 miles

Daniel >>>>>>>>> 269.1 miles

From the above illustration, we can see that Daniel travelled farther than Wendy.

B. Determination of how much farther Daniel travelled than Wendy.

Name >>>>>>>>>> Distance travelled

Wendy >>>>>>>>> 266.37 miles

Daniel >>>>>>>>> 269.1 miles

Difference = Daniel – Wendy

Difference = 269.1 – 266.37

Difference = 2.73 miles

Thus, Daniel travelled 2.73 miles farther than Wendy.
