Answer:

The sailboat would cover 30 more miles than the catamaran.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many miles the sailboat goes in 1 day (unit rate) you divide 3240/8 that gives you 405 miles in one day. Multiply that by 2 to get 810 miles in two days. Add 810+3240=4050. That shows that in 10 days the sailboat would travel 4,050 miles which is 30 miles more than the catamaran.
