    Total distance traveled by Jason = 1495 miles

    Total time taken to travel this distance = 23 hours

    The number of miles traveled per hour:

    We will use repeated subtraction method to find the number of miles traveled per hour.

    1495 - 23 = 1472

    1472 - 23 = 1449

    1449-23 = 1426

    1426-23 = 1403

    1403-23 = 1380

    .

    .

    . and so on ...

    Therefore, after subtracting 23 from 1495, 65 times we get the result as zero.

    Therefore, 65 miles are traveled per hour by Jason.
