C is the correct answer. First, work out how far she can travel in one hour. If Olivia travels 306 miles in 8.5 hours, she will travel 306/8.5 miles in one hour - this equals 36 hours. Then multiply this by 9.1. Olivia travels 327.6 miles in 9.1 hours.

Answer:

C. 327.6 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Work out how far she can travel in one hour. If Olivia travels 306 miles in 8.5 hours, she will travel 306/8.5 miles in one hour.

[tex]\frac{306}{8.5}[/tex] (Divide the two numbers)

306÷8.5=36 ([tex]\frac{306}{8.5}[/tex]=36)

Then multiply this by 9.1. Olivia travels 327.6 miles in 9.1 hours.
