Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D 🗳️
Since you spend $2.75 for the first quarter mile, you have $3.75 (6.5 2.75) left to spend on mile intervals. $3.75 divided by $.125 equals 30 quarter miles. The
30 miles, plus the initial quarter mile, makes a total of 31quarter miles. 31 quarter-miles equal 7.75 miles.
