Question

Kate is touring Vietnam for four days. The car rental is $38.15 per day plus 12½ cents per mile. If Kate drives 380.5 miles, how much does she owe the rental company? A. $152.60 B. $201.16 C. $475.56 D. $200.16

Answer 1

Hey there,

#1 step

So the first thing that we will do is do 12.50 × 380.5 because 12.50 is how much she owes per mile and 380.5 is the amount that Kate would drive. So we do 12.50 × 380.5 and that will give us your answer to be C.)

So now we know that Kate will have to spend 474.56 to the car rental company.

$$\boxed{475.56}$

Hope this helps you.
