Ok, total miles is 140.9.

$2.50 first 1/10 th mile

$0.17 each additional 1/10 th mile

What's my total? Or round about.

How i got that btw is this........


$2.50 fist 1/10 of a mile

$1.53 for 9/10 of a mile (rest of first mile at .17)

$1.70 for a full mile after that there are 139 full miles = $236.30

$1.53 for the last 9/10 of a mile.

=$241.86
