12×3.5=42

so if the car was towed 12 miles to a repair shop and it costs $3.50 a mile then it would cost $42.00 total

To answer this question, you just multiply the cost per mile times the number of miles. This makes sense because if it costs 3.50 per mile, the cost for 12 miles should be 12 times that amount.

So, 3.5 × 12 = 42

The tow costs 42 dollars.
