Min took a taxi from her office to her home. Her taxi fare was based on the charges shown. The taxi stopped once at a traffic light for 2 minutes and travelled a total distance of 6.1 km to reach Min's home. How much was her taxi fare?

Taxi Fare
First km	$3.30
Every additional 300 m or less	$0.36
Every 45 seconds waiting or less	$0.20

Amount to pay for the first 1 km = $3.30

Remaining distance to pay for
= 6.1 - 1
= 5.1 km

1 km = 1000 m
5.1 km = 5.1 x 1000 = 5100 m

Sets of additional 300 m
= 5100 ÷ 300
= 17 r 0

Amount to pay for remaining 5.1 km
= 17 x 0.36
= $6.12

1 min = 60 s
2 min = 2 x 60 = 120 s

Sets of 45 seconds of waiting
= 120 ÷ 45
= 2 r 30

Sets of 45 seconds of waiting or less
= 2 + 1
= 3

Amount to pay for sets of 45 seconds of waiting or less
= 3 x 0.20
= $0.60

Min's taxi fare
= 3.30 + 6.12 + 0.60
= $10.02

Answer(s): $10.02
