54 - 24 = 30
30/0.25 = ? miles
well since its only one day the car rental would cost $24. so
54-24= 30
then divide 30 by the cost per mile(.25)
30/.25=120 so they traveled 120 miles
oh oops sorry ms. sue i didn't see that you already posted
That's ok, Roger. It helps students to see more than one way to solve a problem. It also confirms that the answer is right. :-)
