Goran rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $15.95 , and there was an additional charge of 71 cents for each mile driven. Goran had to pay $18

Question

i just need to know how to work it out 

Answer 1

I assume you are trying to find the

number of miles driven.

 

He paid $18 of which $15.95 was

the flat fee.

  18.00

- 15.95

---------

$2.05 is the amount paid for mileage.

 

This is 205 cents for mileage

at 71 cents per mile.  Divide

205 by 71 to get the miles driven.

 

205/71 = 2.9 miles.

 

Is there information missing from the
