Question

John's cell phone gives him 1250 minutes for $25. He used 1300 minutes. How much will his cell phone company bill him for?

Answer 1

Its would be 26$ because 1250 divided by 25$ is 50 and 1300 divided by 50 is 26$

Answer 2

Answer:

$26.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that John's cell phone gives him 1250 minutes for $25. We are asked to find John's bill for 1300 minutes.

First of all, we will find charges per minute by dividing $25 by 1250 as:

$\text{Charge per minute}=\frac{\ 25}{1250}$

$\text{Charge per minute}=\ 0.02$

Now, we will multiply 1300 by $0.02 to find John's bill.

$\text{John's bill}=\ 0.02\times 1300$

$\text{John's bill}=\ 26$

Therefore, John's company will charge him $26 for 1300 minutes.
