Question

Linda drives 35 miles five days of the week . During one year, she has 10 days of vacation and 10 holidays when she does not drive. How many miles does she drive during one year?

Answer 1

1680 miles

Explanation:

There are 52 weeks in a year. Total number of days she is expected to work would be 52 * 5 = 260 days.

Now we know she has 10 vacation days and 10 holidays. This translates 260 - 20 = 240 days

Now if she drives 35miles 5 days of the week, this means she dives 7 miles per day.

The total number of miles traveled is this 240 * 7 = 1680 miles
