Strickler rented one for 3 days, drove 865 miles, and paid $32.08 for gas.

What was the total cost of renting the sedan?

What was the total cost per mile?

What was the total cost per day?

a) $347.5

b) $0.33

c) $115.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost for renting per day = $9.99

Cost per mile = $0.33

Number of days rented=3

Cost for renting for 3 days = 3*$9.99=$29.97

Number of miles drive = 865

Cost per mile $0.33

Total cost = $0.33*865=$285.45

cost of gas = $32.08

a) cost of renting a sedan = $29.97 + $285.45 + $32.08 = $347.5

b) Total cost per mile = $285.45/865 = $0.33

c) $347.5/3 = $115.83
