Question

On Saturday, Enrique charges $2 for every 1/6 hour he spends running errands. He earned $50 last Saturday. He picked up dry cleaning for Mrs.Abel for 4/6 hour,ran to the post office for Mr.Kovac for 1 1/6hours, and swept up the lobby of the building for the apartment manager for 5/6 hour. He got a $4 tip from Mr.Kovac. How long did it take him to walk Mrs.Camacho's dog and pick up her groceries? Show your work.

Answer 1

Dear Amjelugo, we can subtract 4 from 50 to get $46. 4/6 hr= $8, 11/6 hr= $22, and 5/6 hr=$10. 10+22+8=$40 46-40=$6 $6=3/6 hr. Enrique walked Mrs. Camacho's dog and pick up her groceries for 3 hr.
