    Answer:Approximately 8 round trips

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The distance between Seattle and Miami is 2,724 miles.

    The distance of a round trip is the total distance that you cover when you travel from Seattle to Miami and return from Miami to Seattle. Therefore

    Round trip = 2 * 2724 = 5448 miles

    You earn a free flight after you accumulate 43,000 miles of travel. This means that the number of round trips that you must make between Seattle and Miami in order to earn a free flight would be

    43000/5448 = 7.89

    Approximately 8 round trips

    So you would multiply 2,724 by two since it is a round trip. Then you would divide 43,000 by that number to get the number.
