I rented a car from Uber through Enterprise, how do I show my expenses for the rental fees if I do not own the car?

In the Q&A section I checked i do not own the vehicle but it tells me to change my answer to enter the mileage driven.  Mileage is not a concern to me since its a rental, but I have weekly rental costs for the vehicle. How do I enter the fees related to the rental if I do not own the vehicle?
