On Monday through Friday, Jerry's dad drives a truck route that is 1,839 miles.  He also drives 178 miles on the weekend.  Which equation and solution represent m, the number of miles Jerry's dad will drive in 24 weeks?

• 1839 + 178 + 24 = m
  m = 2,041

• (1,839 + 178) x 24 = m
  m = 48,408

• (1,839 X 24) + 178 = m
  m = 44,314

• (1,839 - 178) x 24 = m
  m = 39,864
