1312 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we simply need to subtract the distance she traveled in her trips to Chicago from the distance she traveled in her trips to Louisville.

She made 4 round trips to Chicago, Illinois . Each of the trips is a distance of 218 miles. This means that the total distance she traveled is:

4 * 218 = 872 miles

She made 6 round trips to Louisville, Kentucky / Each of the trips is a distance of 364 miles. This means that the total distance she traveled is:

6 * 364 = 2184 miles

Therefore, the difference between the distances she traveled is:

2184 - 872 = 1312 miles

She traveled 1312 miles more in her trips to Louisville than in her trips to Chicago.
