You can put this solution on YOUR website! 12.76/58=22%!!!!!!
58+12.76=$70.76..
-----------------------
42+.35n=70
.35n=28
n=28/.35=80
Judy can drive up to 80 miles and stay within budget..
----------------------
n+n+.7=7.1
2n=6.4
n=3.2
The average student spends 3.2 hours on educational activities..
