Communicating WellMath Practice Step-by-StepFollow these steps to solve the Section 11.2 Math Practice problem. Teamwork Figure It Out You and four other team members attend a training seminar on conflict resolution. The seminar costs $150 per person. You will need to drive two cars to the seminar, and make a 100-mile round trip from your office. If two drivers are reimbursed 37.5 cents per mile, what is the cost to your employer for the team's participation in the training? Step 1 Multiply the cost per person by the number of people attending the seminar.
Step 2 Convert the number of cents per mile to a decimal (.375).
Step 3 Multiply the decimal by the number of miles of the trip (100) by the number of drivers (2). This number is the total cost of driving. Step 4 Add the totals of Step 1 and Step 3. This number is the answer to the question. |
