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.
