a man pays 60 cents for every 200 m of gas used plus a fixed charged of $13.75. how much does he pay when he uses 55,000 m of gas?

$178.75

Step-by-step explanation:

He pays 60 cents for every 200m of gas plus a fixed charge of $13.75

How much does he pay when he uses 55,000 m of gas

55,000/200=275

There are 275 200m in 55,000m of gas

Total paid=275×60+13.75

=16,500 cents +$13.75

=$(16,500/100)+$13.75

=$165+$13.75

=$178.75

$178.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Per 200m of gas, we have $0.60, plus a fixed rate of $13.75

Then for 55,000m of gas we have:

(55,000m/200m)*$0.60 = $165

then the amount he pays is the $165 plus the fixed rate:

M = $165 + $13.75 = $178.75
