Answer:

Simple answer is 68

Explanation:

In the equation, you can already tell that there is 408 miles traveled in 6 hours. Now since you are trying to only get the answer for how far it would go in one hour, you would have to divide 408 into 6 equal numbers, which would be 68. To prove it is correct, multiply 68 6 times and you will be back to 408.
