Answer:

222 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets create an equation to solve this easier.

Let x represent the miles driven in the truck.

Our equation is 238.51=.98x+20.95

All we have to do now is solve for x.

Subtract 20.95 on both sides.

217.56=.98x

Now divide both sides by .98 to isolate the variable.

222=x

Ivan drove the truck 222 miles.

Hope this helps!
