Question

Chang rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of 15.95, and there was an additional charge of 88 cents for each mile driven. Chang had to pay 210.43 when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive the truck?

Answer 1

221 Miles

Explanation:

Since there is a base fee, you substract that from the total.

210.43 - 15.95 = 194.48.

And since it was .88 per mile, you just divide 194.48 by .88 to get 221
