Answer:

Distance travelled in  [tex]8 \frac{3}{4}[/tex] hours is 659.17 miles .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Jill drives [tex]75 \frac{1}{3}[/tex] miles every hour .

i.e

Jill drives [tex]\frac{226}{3}[/tex] miles every hour .

Now find out the distance travelled in [tex]8 \frac{3}{4}[/tex] hours .

[tex]Distance\ travelled = 8 \frac{3}{4}\times miles\ travelled\ every\ hour[/tex]

[tex]Distance\ travelled =\frac{35}{4}\times \frac{226}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Distance\ travelled =\frac{7910}{12}[/tex]

Distance travelled = 659.17 miles (Approx)

Therefore distance travelled in  [tex]8 \frac{3}{4}[/tex] hours is 659.17 miles .
