Question 1006459: Rachel and Sarah started out to visit Grandma. They drove for 50mjles and stopped to rest before driving for 30more miles. They decided to go back 10miles to a restaurant they had seen. After leaving the restaurant, they drive 80more miles to Grandma's house. If gasoline is $2 a mile,
How much money did Rachel and Sarah spent on gas to get to Grandma's house and back?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let's see now...
50 + 30 + 10 (going back) + 80 + 150 (distance back) = 320 miles
If gas is $2 per mile (which seems extreme), that would total
$640.
