Step-by-step explanation:

Identify the cost of 125 miles;

[tex]125 \times 0.12 = 15[/tex]

$15 for 125 miles.

Subtract 150 and 15;

[tex]150 - 15 = 135[/tex]

(Money remaining)

Divide 135 by 25 to identify how many days she can rent the car;

[tex]135 \div 25 = 5 \frac{2}{5} [/tex]

5 2/5 decreases to 5 as you can't rent a car for 5 2/5 days.

Answer: She can drive 125 miles and rent the car for 5 days.
