Question

when sales reps are out of town that require an overnight stay, they recieve $150 for hotels plus $0.50 per mile driven. how many miles did joe drive if his company reimbursed him $225.00 for an overnight stay?

Answer 1

Joe traveled 150 miles

Answer 2

150 miles. If you take away the $150 for the hotel, you are left with $75. So, Joe gets $.50 for every mile he drives and he earned $75 so multiply that by 2 to get your answer. :)
