the mileage is spurious information
... intended to mislead
Jerry is going to work for x weeks at 120 per week ... then add that money to the $630 he already has to make up the selling price

No! The number of miles has nothing to do with this calculation.
n = (1920 - 630) / 120
is
120 n = 1920 - 630
which is
120 n + 630 = 1920
n = (1920 - 630) / 120
is
120 n = 1920 - 630
which is
120 n + 630 = 1920
