    440/8 will get you how many miles Sarah travel in 1 hour.

    But Sarah travels 55 miles in 1 hour.

    Sarah can travel 330 miles in 6 hour.

    d=55t Sara travels 330 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We are given that distance, d, Sarah drives varies directly to the time, t. This means

    d=k⋅t

    for some constant, k. Since Sarah travels 440 miles in 8 hours, we substitute these values into the formula for direct variation to find

    440=k⋅8

    Dividing by 8 gives k=55, so an equation that relates d and t is

    d=55t

    Substituting t=6 yields

    55 (6) = 330

    So Sarah can travel 330 miles in 6 hours.
