Answer:
339 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A car rental agency advertised renting a car for $27.95 per day and 0.26$ per mile.
If Trevor rents this car for 4 days.
Question asked:
How many whole miles can he drive on a $200 budget?
Solution:
Total budget = $200
Trevor rents car for number of days = 4
As a car rental agency renting a car for $27.95 per day fixed charge, so Trevor must pay = Fixed charge per day [tex]\times[/tex] number of days rented for
= $27.95 [tex]\times[/tex] 4
= $111.8
Remaining amount = $200 - $111.8 = $88.2
Now, to find number of miles he can travel, we will divide remaining amount by amount charged per mile
$88.2 [tex]\div[/tex] $0.26 = 339.23 miles
Therefore, he can drive 339 miles on a $200 budget
