Erika 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 4.3 km to reach Erika's home. How much was her taxi fare?

Taxi Fare
First km	$3.80
Every additional 300 m or less	$0.32
Every 35 seconds waiting or less	$0.30

Amount to pay for the first 1 km = $3.80

Remaining distance to pay for
= 4.3 - 1
= 3.3 km

1 km = 1000 m
3.3 km = 3.3 x 1000 = 3300 m

Sets of additional 300 m
= 3300 ÷ 300
= 11 r 0

Amount to pay for remaining 3.3 km
= 11 x 0.32
= $3.52

1 min = 60 s
2 min = 2 x 60 = 120 s

Sets of 35 seconds of waiting
= 120 ÷ 35
= 3 r 15

Sets of 35 seconds of waiting or less
= 3 + 1
= 4

Amount to pay for sets of 35 seconds of waiting or less
= 4 x 0.30
= $1.20

Erika's taxi fare
= 3.80 + 3.52 + 1.20
= $8.52

Answer(s): $8.52
