A taxi charges $14 for a 7 mile trip. How much will the taxi charge for a 16 mile trip?

The answer is $32.
$14 divided by 7 it is 2.
$2 per mile.
16 times 2 is 32.

32 i think because about that 7 mile trip charges $14 meaning it was 2 x 7 so that means i add 2 by 2 so i just start at 14 and counted 9 more times
9 x 2 = 18 , 18 + 14 = 32
You can disagree because I don't know
