When they arrived in Philadelphia, Tyler’s family took a taxi to a museum. The taxi charged $2.70 per mile, and they paid the driver a $3.00 tip. If they paid a total of $16.50 for the taxi ride, about how far was the museum from the train station?

Answer:

5 miles

Explanation:

To find how many miles it is from the train station to the museum we first have to subtract the tip from the total fair and you get 13.50 and then you divide 13.50 by 2.70 to get the number of miles and you get 5.
