She worked 2 and 1/2 hours yesterday, and today she did 4 and 1/4 hours.

first off, let's check how many hours she worked total, and divide 54 by it.

so, first off, let's convert the mixed fractions to "improper" and add them up.

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{2}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{1}{4}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{17}{4}}\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf \cfrac{5}{2}+\cfrac{17}{4}\impliedby \textit{our LCD will be 4}\implies \cfrac{(2\cdot 5)+(1\cdot 17)}{4}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{10+17}{4}\implies \cfrac{27}{4}\implies \stackrel{total~hours}{6\frac{3}{4}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\stackrel{wages}{54}}{\stackrel{hours}{6\frac{3}{4}}}\implies \cfrac{54}{\frac{27}{4}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{54}{1}}{\frac{27}{4}}\implies \cfrac{54}{1}\cdot \cfrac{4}{27}\implies \cfrac{216}{27}\implies 8~\frac{\$}{hr}$

Joel sells ice cream cones at the county fair. He has to rent the equipment for $28 and spent $.33 on a gradients for each accou

spin [16.1K]

Rental - $28
Ingredients- $33
Total $61.00

At $1.30 each you can guesstimate he'd have to sell almost 60 cones to break even.
OR
You can divide 1.30 into $61.00 for about 47 cones to break even. (I rounded up)

To make a profit he would either need to sell double that amount or he could raise the cost of his cone to $2.00 & make profit sooner.
