How do you solve this?

Question

Your car gets 25 miles per gallon of gas. Gas costs $2.50 per gallon. You drive 1,000 miles in one month, and auto insurance is $75 per month. Wear-and-tear costs are about $50 per month. Show your work to find the total cost of operating your car for one month.

Answer 1

Total Cost in one month = ($2.50/gal)/(25 mi/gal)*1000 mi + $75 + $50

                                   =  $100 + $75 + $50  = $225
