To find out how many miles James travels in 3 hours, we can use the concept of proportion.
We know that James travels 624 miles in 8 hours. So, we can set up the proportion:
8 hours = 624 miles
3 hours = x miles
To solve for x, we can cross multiply:
8 * x = 3 * 624
Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 8:
x = (3 * 624) / 8
Calculating this, we have:
x = 1872 / 8 = 234
Therefore, James travels 234 miles in 3 hours.
