7 days a week Laura drives 20 miles to school, so Laura drives 7 x 20 = 140 miles to school in one week. The supermarket is 10 miles farther away than the school. Therefore the supermarket is 10 + 10 = 20 miles away from Laura’s house. Laura drives 20 miles each way to and from the supermarket. Each trip is 20 x 2 = 40 miles. Laura drives 40 miles twice a week to visit the supermarket. Therefore she drives 40 x 2 = 80 miles in total a week to and from the supermarket. In total Laura drives 140 + 80 = 220 miles each week.
The answer: 220.
