John · Answer 1

24/18 = 4/3

304/4 = 76

76 x 3 = 228

24/18 is the ratio of cm to mi. 4/3 is 24/18 in its simplest form. Dividing 304 by 4, then multiplying by 3 is the same as multiplying by 4/3. It is 288 miles.

Lillian Frost · Answer 2

304 divided by 24=12.666 (rounded to 12.7)

12.7 x 18=227.99 (rounded to 228)

the answer is 228 miles
