Question

A rental car agency charges $180 per week plus $0.25 per mile to rent a car. How many miles can you travel in one week for $382.50?

Answer 1

810 miles

Explanation:

$180 a week is the fixed cost so we subtract this first.

($382.50 - $180 = $202.50)

The number left is the amount of dollars charged per mile.

So if we divide this number by $0.25, we get how many miles travelled.

($202.50 ÷ $0.25 = 810 miles)

Answer 2

810

Explanation:

382.50-180= 202.5

202.5 / 0.25= 810

Hope this helps!
