(Encircle this answer, as said on the directions)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the first three days of the trip, we traveled 1380 miles.

Find the UNIT RATE of MILES PER day:

1380/3 = 460

Unit rate = 460 miles per day

If we were to drive at this (460 mi per day) rate EACH day and the whole journey takes 2760 miles across the country.

FInd the NUMBER of DAYS of the ENTIRE TRIP:

2760/460 = 6

It will take us 6 days to drive to the destination.
