Ryan rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $15.99, and there was an additional charge of 72 cents for each mile driven. Ryan had to pay $175.11 when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive the truck?
You subtract the initial fee from the total cost (175.11-15.99=159.12) the you divide that by the cost of every mile and it gives you the amount of miles.
