Answer:

Darell must make 20 trips to total 28 kilometers of cycling.

Explanation:

Given that Darell has already cycled 8 kilometers this year, plus he plans to cycle 1 kilometer during each trip to work, to determine how many trips he must make to total 28 kilometers of cycling, the following calculation must be performed:

(28 - 8) / 1 = X

20/1 = X

20 = X

Thus, Darell must make 20 trips to total 28 kilometers of cycling.
