if he rented the truck for only 1 day, you would have to take away the $16.95 away from the $229.23 which would equal $212.28 then further you would divide $212.28 by 87 cents
but first you'd have to turn 87 into dollars which would be $0.87


$212.28÷$0.87=224

hopefully this is correct and helps ♡♡~chyna
