A truck driver earns $51.20 driving an 80-mile route. The driver’s next route is 120 miles long and is billed at the same rate. How much does the driver earn on this next route?

$76.80

Step-by-step explanation:

120/80 equals how many times the next route is larger than the first one. Which is 1.5 times larger.

Take the first earning of 51.20 and multiply by 1.5 to get 76.80

120/80=1.5

51.20*1.5=76.8

On the next route the truck driver earns $76.80.

The truck driver will be making $76.80 on his next route.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you calculate the amount of money he makes per mile by dividing $51.20 by 80 miles. Then you take that pay rate, and multiply by 120 miles.
