Hong rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $20.95, and there was an additional charge of 90 cents for each mile driven. Hong had to pay $285.55 when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive?

Hong drove the truck for 294 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent the number of miles for which he drove the truck.

There was a base fee of $20.95, and there was an additional charge of 90 cents for each mile driven. It means that the expression for the cost of driving the truck for m miles in a day is

20.95 + 0.9m

Hong had to pay $285.55 when he returned the truck. It means that

20.95 + 0.9m = 285.55

0.9m = 285.55 - 20.95

0.9m = 264.6

m = 264.6/0.9

m = 294 miles
