Darnell's car used 8 gallons of gasoline to travel 340 miles. After a mechanic worked on the car, it used 7 gallons of gasoline to travel 350 miles. If the price of gasoline was approximately $4.00 per gallon, how much less, to the nearest cent per mile, did it cost to run the car after the mechanic worked on it?

8*4=32
7*4=28

340÷32=10.625
350÷28=12.5

12.5-10.625= 1.875
