Question

For a ride on a rental scooter, Felipe paid a $2 fee to start the scooter plus 12 cents per minute of the ride. The total bill for Felipes ride was $22.28. For how many minutes did Felipe ride the scooter?

Answer 1

Answer:

169 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, deduct the fee:

22.28 - 2 = 20.28

Change the dollars into cents:

20.28 x 100 = 2028

Then divide the amount by 12 cents:

2028 / 12 = 169.

He rode it for 169 minutes or 2 hours and 49 minutes
