Jim rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $ 19.99, and there was an additional charge of 71 cents for each mile driven. Jim had to pay $ 210.98 when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive the truck?

First subtract $19.99 from $210.98

=$190.99

Convert to cents

=19099 cents

To find the number of miles, divide 19099cents by 71cents
