Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Casi traveled distance in 3 hours=135 miles

We have to find the time taken by Casi to drive 360 miles at the same speed using proportion .

Let time taken by Casi to drive 360 miles=x

We know that

Speed=[tex]\frac{Distance}{time}[/tex]

Using proportion

[tex]\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{135}{3}=\frac{36}{x}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{360\times 3}{135}[/tex]

[tex]x=8[/tex]

Hence, the time taken by Casi to drive 360 miles=8 hours
