Question

Emilie wants to travle 240 miles how much would the cheaper taxi journey cost her give your answer in pounds

Taxi a was £45 per 30 miles now 15% off
Taxi b 90p per mile

Answer 1

Answer: B

Explanation:

For the taxi A, a 240 mile ride would normally cost 8x45=360 Pounds, but since there is a %15 discount, the price becomes 360-360x%15=306 Pounds.

For the taxi B, it's 90p = 0.9 Pounds per mile, a 240 mile ride would cost 240x0.9 = 216 Pounds.

So B is cheaper
