5.95 + 2.95 = 8.9
8.9 + 29.95 = 38.85
62.35 - 38.85 = 23.5 
So Daniel spent $23.50 on long distance calling 

Answer: Daniel spent $23.5 on long distance

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given.

So, Daniel's total bill (62.35) is equal to the sum of the cost of all the services: Basic cell phone rate (29.95); voice mail (5.95); text messaging (2.95); long distance (C)

Mathematically speaking:

29.95+5.95+2.95+C = 62.35

Solving for C

38.85+C =62.35

C =62.35-38.85

C =$23.5

Daniel spent $23.5 on long distance
