Step by Step !!!

Answer 1

Answer:

6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

first thing you need to do is find a number under 18 that can be multiplied by 3

3

6

9

12

15

18

and 18 is the 6th number and is 18, you can add the 2 extra fixed charge to that

they can travel 6 miles

but if you're talking about a fixed charge per mile then dont use this! ^^

Answer 2

Answer:

6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

6 x 3 = 18

7 x 3 = 21

it has to be 6 since 7 is too big and plus 2 is exactly 20
