1. **State the problem:** Solve the trigonometric equation $$3 + 5 \sin \theta = 1$$ for $$0^\circ \leq \theta \leq 360^\circ$$.
2. **Isolate the sine term:**
$$3 + 5 \sin \theta = 1$$
Subtract 3 from both sides:
$$5 \sin \theta = 1 - 3$$
$$5 \sin \theta = -2$$
Divide both sides by 5:
$$\sin \theta = \frac{-2}{5}$$
Show cancellation:
$$\sin \theta = \cancel{5} \frac{-2}{\cancel{5}} = -\frac{2}{5}$$
3. **Find the reference angle:**
Calculate the inverse sine of the positive value:
$$\theta_r = \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{5}\right) \approx 23.58^\circ$$
4. **Determine the quadrants:**
Since $$\sin \theta$$ is negative, $$\theta$$ lies in Quadrants III and IV.
5. **Calculate the solutions:**
- Quadrant III: $$\theta = 180^\circ + \theta_r = 180^\circ + 23.58^\circ = 203.58^\circ$$
- Quadrant IV: $$\theta = 360^\circ - \theta_r = 360^\circ - 23.58^\circ = 336.42^\circ$$
6. **Final answer:**
$$\theta = 203.6^\circ \text{ and } 336.4^\circ$$

**Additional problem:** Simplify the ratio 384 km : 192 km.
1. Divide both terms by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 192:
$$\frac{384}{192} : \frac{192}{192} = 2 : 1$$
**Final simplified ratio:**
$$2 : 1$$
