Question

a car rental agency advertised renting a car for $28.95 per day and $0.027 per mile. if Greg rents this car for 2 days, how many whole miles can he drive on a $250 budget ?

Answer 1

First you multiply 2 * 28.95 because he rents the car for 2 day and the agency charges per day. That's 57.9 and if you subtract 250 (the budget) from how much he has to pay then it leaves with how much he can spend on miles.That's $192.1 and it cost 0.027 cents per mile so divide 192.1 by 0.027 and thats your answer
