Question

Leslie is considering renting a car for the weekend. The weekend daily rate is $24.99. If she plans on picking up the car on Friday morning and returning it Sunday evening, how much will the rental cost her?
A. $119.97

B. $29.99

C. $79.97

D. $74.97

Answer 1

Don't overthink it!  Leslie is renting the car for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, so a total of 3 days.  If the car costs $24.99 per day, you just multiply the two to get the total rental cost.

 

$24.99 * 3 = $74.97
