1 answer

To find out how many miles Ross can drive in 12 hours, you can set up a proportion using the information given:

Miles driven / Time taken = Miles driven / Time taken

Let's call the number of miles Ross can drive in 12 hours "x":

396 miles / 6 hours = x miles / 12 hours

Cross-multiplying gives:

6x = 396 * 12

Simplifying:

6x = 4752

Dividing both sides by 6:

x = 4752 / 6 = 792

Therefore, Ross can drive 792 miles in 12 hours.
