A taxi service charges a $1.90 fee for each ride plus an additional $0.80 per mile. If a taxi ride costs $4.30, how many miles did the taxi travel during the ride?

3 miles because you have to subtract the 1.90 from the total which gives you 2.4 and then you have to see how many times .80 goes into 2.4
