Question

I need help with this Alice question.

Answer 1

Let  x be the number of miles EXCLUDING the first
Amount of money paid (excluding the first : $(0.1).x
Total money paid (INCLUDING the 1st mile):
0.90 + (0.1)x = $3.2
0.1.x = 3.2 -0.90 
0.1.x = 2.3 
x = 2.3/0.1 = 23 miles
Now we have to add the 1st mile, then the total of miles = 23+1 = 24 Miles
