Question

Nathan's rental costs for a 5-day trip are $234 in rental fees, plus 4 percent tax, plus $20 a day car insurance. What total did he pay for the rental?

A. $214.36

B. $343.36

C. $263.36

D. $254

Answer 1

Your answer is going to be D

Answer 2

The correct answer is option B, $343.36
I came to the conclusion by multiplying the rental cost by the tax rate= 9.36 and then multiplying the daily insurance fee by the amount of days- 20*5=100 and then adding 234+9.36+100 which equals 343.36. The general formula for finding the total cost would be Rental charge+ +(rental)(tax rate)+(Insurance)(# of days)

Hope this helps a bit
