Answer:
He drive the truck <u>292</u> miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Kareem rented a truck for one day.
There was a base fee of $14.95, and there was an additional charge of 93 cents for each mile driven.
Kareem had to pay $286.51 when he returned the truck.
Now, to find the miles he drive the truck.
So, we deduct the base fee first:
$286.51 - $14.95 = $271.56.
So, the remaining amount = $271.56
Now, we divide the remaining amount by by charge of 93 cents for each mile driven:
Converting cents into $ = 93 cents = 93 ÷ 100 = $0.93.
Therefore, he drive the truck 292 miles.
