Answer:

3.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Day\ 1 = 343\ miles[/tex]

Required

Number of days to drive 1200 miles

Represent as ratio:

[tex]Day\ 1 = 343\ miles[/tex]

[tex]Ratio = 1 : 343[/tex]

For 1200 miles

[tex]Ratio = x : 1200[/tex]

Equate both ratios

[tex]x : 1200 = 1 : 343[/tex]

Express as fractions

[tex]x/1200 = 1/343[/tex]

Multiply by 120

[tex]x/1200 *1200= 1/343*1200[/tex]

[tex]x= 3.4985[/tex]

[tex]x= 3.5[/tex] --- approximated
