You can put this solution on YOUR website!

if a woman drives her car 216mil in 4h,then in 8h she can travel twice as much: 2%2A216mil=432mil
or, you can do it this way:
=>speed is 216mil%2F4h=54%28mil%2Fh%29
then, she have travel in 8h the distance of:
d=54%28mil%2Fcross%28h%29%29%2A8cross%28h%29
d=432mil
