So, there are 6 dozen pairs of gloves. That amount of gloves costed $87.12. She calculated the amount per pair as 14.52. This was incorrect because she forgot about the majority of the 6 dozen(one dozen is the number 12). So that means there are not 6 pairs of gloves, in fact, there are 72 pairs of gloves. So, now that we have that number, we can <u>correctly</u> calculate the amount of gloves per pair. Now we have 2 answers. The amount per glove and the amount per pair

Answer 1: Each pair of gloves costs $1.21.

Answer 2: Each individual glove costs 61¢<em>(if there is a number under the hundredths place in the price, like in the thousandths, you </em><em>always</em><em> round upwards, in this case, the cost was .605, but you round up, making it 61¢)</em>

hichkok12 [17]

Answer: His total rental cost will be $164.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of per day = $30

Cost of per mile after the first 100 miles = $0.65

According to question, he was travelling 215 miles in 3 days.

So, it becomes,

30\times 3+0.65\times (215-100)\\\\=90+0.65\times 115\\\\=90+47.75\\\\=\$164.75

Hence, his total rental cost will be $164.75.
