Question

in addition to dog walking on Tuesday Eric made $45 dog sitting at one of his customers homes if he made $168 on Tuesday right in equation to find the number of dogs you walk that day

Answer 1

Since we don't know how much Eric makes per dog, let's let x represent that value. Let's also let y represent our answer.

First, let's consider the two numbers we KNOW will be in the equation. The 56 that Eric made dog sitting and the 168 he made in total on Tuesday. Now, we're going to need to use subtraction and division in this equation.

(168 - 45) ÷ x = y

Hope this answer helped you out. :)
