Question

alisha and hailey want to rent a limousine for prom.the limo costs 700 for the night 0.15 per mile if they have 750 set aside for the limo how many miles can the limo take them?

Answer 1

The easiest way to figure this out is by first subtracting 700 from 750 to make sure we don't get confused. Now that you have 50 dollars left what would be best to do would be divide the 50 (because you have 50 dollars left) by the amount per mile (.15). That should be 333.33333333. Rounded it would be 333 miles.
