Boris rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $16.95, and there was an additional charge of 89 cents for each mile driven. Boris had to pay $131.76
when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive the truck?

Respuesta :

Boris drove the truck 129 miles. You take how much the base fee (16.95) and subtract it from the total of how much he had to pay (131.79). The problem would look like $131.79 - $16.95 = $114.84. Then would would take 114.84 and divide it by the cost of one mile. This problem would look like $114.84 divided by $0.89 = 129. This means the driver drove 129 miles! I hope this helps!
