A traveling salesman figures it costs 28 cents for every mile he drives his car. How much does it cost him (in dollars) a week to drive his car if he travels 495 miles a week?

Cost is 28c per mile.
495miles cost 495*.28= $138.60 or 139.00 approx.

Since you know it costs 28 cents you can rewrite that as 0.28 dollars. Since he travels 495 miles a week and you want to know the cost per week you can just multiply those two numbers: 495*0.28 = $138.6. Hope this helps!
