On a typical long distance call, you talk for 30 minutes. On a typical local call, you talk for 10 minutes. Your phone company offers a special low rate of $0.08 per minute for long distance calls and $0.03 per minute for local calls for customers who spen at least 240 minutes on the phone per month.
