Let
x------> hours worked by Sara last week
y------> hours worked by Joan last week
z------> hours worked by Erin last week
we know that
x=28 hours ------> equation 1
y=x-6-----> equation 2
substitute the value of x in equation 2
y=28-6=22 hours
z=y/2------> equation 3
substitute the value of y in the equation 3
z=22/2=11 hours
<u>the answer is</u>
Sara worked 28 hours last week
Joan worked 22 hours last week
Erin worked 11 hours last week
Combine all x first, dont overthink it
Divide 16 by 8.
16 ÷ 8 = 2.
So, one avocado costs $2.
