Concept:Distance is found using the relation: $\text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time}$.Solution:Given speed $= 18 \ \text{km/h}$ and time $= 8 \ \text{h}$.Substitute these values into the distance formula:$\text{Distance} = 18 \ \text{km/h} \times 8 \ \text{h}$The unit $\text{h}$ cancels out, leaving the distance in km.$\text{Distance} = 18 \times 8 = 144 \ \text{km}$Answer:Option D ($144 \text{ km}$)
