Answer:

13 hours

Explanation:

Number of days Daniel is planning for 6-night road trip

Cost of transportation =$ 310

Cost for food=$ 275

Cost per night for hotel= $70

Total number of nights= 6

Total cost for Hotel= 6×$70= $420

Total cost for a trip= $ 310+ $ 275+420

Total cost for a trip= $1005

Savings of Daniel= $ 745

Total money to be needed= $1005-$745

Total money to be needed= $260

Cost of tutoring= $20

Number of hours he needs to do tutoring=
(260)/(20)

Number of hours he needs to do tutoring=13 hours

Hence, the correct answer is 13 hours
