Answer:
The cost per kilometer was $2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct question is
Emanuel was charged $32 for a 14 2/9 km
What was the cost per kilometer?
To find out the cost per kilometer (unit rate) divide the total cost by the total kilometers
Convert mixed number to an improper fraction
[tex]14\frac{2}{9}\ km=\frac{14*9+2}{9}=\frac{128}{9}\ km[/tex]
Find the unit rate
[tex]\frac{32}{\frac{128}{9}}=\frac{32*9}{128}=\$2.25\ per\ kilometer[/tex]
therefore
The cost per kilometer was $2.25
