For three visits, the electrician earned $40 × 3 = $120 in "per-visit" charges. For working x hours, he earned 20x in "per-hour" charges. The total of these came to 50x:

120 +20x = 50x

120 = 30x . . . . . . . . subtract 20x

4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 30

The electrician worked 4 hours that day.

antoniya [11.8K]

Given:

The recipe calls for $\dfrac{2}{3}$ cup of strawberries for each gallon of lemonade.

Tia has 6 cups of strawberries.

To find:

The number of gallons of lemonade she can make.

Solution:

We have,

$\dfrac{2}{3}$ cup of strawberries for = 1 gallon of lemonade

$1$ cup of strawberries for = $\dfrac{1}{\frac{2}{3}}$ gallons of lemonade

= $1\times \dfrac{3}{2}$ gallons of lemonade

= $\dfrac{3}{2}$ gallons of lemonade

$6$ cup of strawberries for = $6\times \dfrac{3}{2}$ gallons of lemonade

= $\dfrac{18}{2}$ gallons of lemonade

= $9$ gallons of lemonade

Therefore, 9 gallons of lemonade she can make by using 6 cups of strawberries.
