Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
3 hours and 15 minutes = 3 hours + 15 minutes
3 hours and 15 minutes = 3 hours + 15/60 hours
3 hours and 15 minutes = 3 hours + 0.25 hours
3 hours and 15 minutes = 3.25 hours
-------------------------------------------------------
D = r*t
D = 64*3.25
D = 208 miles

It travels 208 miles
