1190.57

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate the round-trip mileage for the trip. Next, take the round-trip mileage and multiply by the number of buses. Finally, multiply the total mileage by the cost per mile.

Round-trip mileage: 153.82 × 2 = 307.64 miles

Round-trip mileage times number of buses: 307.64 × 6 = 1845.84 total miles

Total mileage times cost per mile: 1845.84 × 0.645 = 1190.5668

Round to the nearest cent: 1190.5668 = $1190.57

The final cost for six buses will be $1190.57.

answer: $13,622.84
