Question

24. Mark travels three days a week for his job as a sales representative for a

pharmaceutical company. His company reimburses him $0.30 per mile and the
company that makes the medicine he is trying to sell reimburses him $0.46 per
mile. If his odometer started at 55,698 miles and ended at 56,129 miles, how
much will Mark be reimbursed?

Answer 1

327.56 dollars

Explanation:

First we will find how much he is reimbursed per mile

.3+.46 = .76

Now we will find how many miles he will be reimbursed for

56,129 - 55,698 = 431

So he drove 431 and will be reimbursed 76 cents per mile

multiply these numbers to get your answer

431 * .76 = 327.56

Mark will be reimbursed 327.56 dollars
