Step-by-step explanation:
Cost per kilometer of the taxi ride = 32/(14 2/9)
Cost per kilometer of the taxi ride = 32/(128/9) ⇒ 14 2/9 = 128/9
Cost per kilometer of the taxi ride = 32 * 9/128 (Multiplicative inverse)
Cost per kilometer of the taxi ride = 288/128 = 144/64 =9/4 = 2 1/4 = 2.25
Emanuel paid US$ 2.25 per kilometer in the taxi ride.
