There are 3 tolls where Stephanie pays $ 4.05.

<h3>What is Distance?</h3>

The distance between two points is the length of the path connecting them.

Here,

Distance covered by Stephanie = 12 1/4 miles

= 12.25 miles

Distance between two toll tax = 3 1/2 miles

= 3.5 miles

Number of Tolls = Total distance covered / Distance between two tolls

= 12.25 / 3.5

= 3.5

≈ 3 tolls.

Cost of 1 toll = $ 1.35

Total amount paid on toll = 3 X 1.35

= $ 4.05

Thus, there are 3 tolls where Stephanie pays $ 4.05.
