Question

Lindsey earns $70 for working 5 hours. How much does she earn for working 12 lawns?

Answer 1

How long does it take her to do a lawn? If it took her 5 hours for 1 lawn then it would be $840 for twelve lawns.

She is getting paid $14 an hour.

Answer 2

I think there's something missing but I will elaborate as much as I can.

Let's find out how much she's paid an hour.

70 ÷ 5 = 14

Lindsey makes $14 an hour.

We must know how much she makes in 12 hours.

14 × 12 = 168

Lindsey earns $168.
