Find out how many miles she drove in one hour on the first day.

250 miles / 5 hours = 50 miles/hour

At this rate, calculate the number of miles she drove in 8 hours.

50 miles/hour * 8 hours = ___________ miles on day 2

You have to find out the average speed

she drove 250 miles in 5 hours so then

250/5 =50 miles per hour

then the second day she drove at the same rate of speed for 8 hours

50 Miles per hour * 8 hours =400 miles

So day 1 she drove at 50 miles per hour (250/5)

Day 2 she drove 8 hours times 50 miles per hour (8*50)= 400 miles.

250 miles / 5 hours = 50 miles per hour
(50 miles per hour) X (5 hours) = 250 miles
rate = 50 miles per hour

So if she continued at the same rate the second day:
(8 hours) X (50 miles per hour) = 400 miles
She drove 400 miles the 2nd day

first find the average of miles per hour on the first day.

250 divided by 5, that will give you 50 miles per day
so on the second day she drove at the same rate for eight hours,
or 8 times 50= 400

she did 400 miles on her secon day

1st day: 250 mph/5 h = 50 mph
2nd day: 50 mph * 8 h = 400 miles
