Answer 1

By multiplying the daily rate (AED 300) by 5 days and adding the one-time fee (AED 110), the total cost comes to AED 1,610, which does not match any of the provided options. An error in the choices might have occurred.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the total cost of renting a van for 5 days from the first company, you must multiply the daily rate by the number of days and then add the additional fee. The daily rate is AED 300, and the additional fee is AED 110. Therefore, the cost can be calculated as:

(AED 300 per day * 5 days) + AED 110 fee = AED 1,500 + AED 110 = AED 1,610

Thus, the total cost for 5 days would be AED 1,610. However, this answer is not listed in the provided options, which means there might be an error in the question or the options. The closest option given is AED 1,600, but it is important to clarify this discrepancy before selecting a final answer
