Question

i need help with a math problem right now it says A car rental agency advertised renting a car for $27.95 per day and $0.28 per mile. If David rents his car for 3 days, how many whole miles can he drive on a $200 budget​

Answer 1

Answer:

David would have to drive for 415 miles before he reaches his $200 budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

It cost $27.95 per day to rent a car and he is only renting it for 3 days. ($27.95 x 3 = $83.85 for all three days). When you subtract $83.85 from his $200 budget you get, $116.15. It is .28 cents for each mile. Next you divide $116.15 by .28 cents to equal 414.82 miles. Round the miles to a whole number to get 415 miles.
