1$ = 100 cents, 1 hour = 60 minutes
$7.80/hour = (7.8*100) cents / (1*60)minutes
= 780 cents/60 minutes
= 13 cents/minute

Answer:
interest rate = 2.9%
Step-by-step explanation:
the principal is $25,000, the interest is $10,875
Number of years = 15
We use simple interest formula
I = P*r*t
Where I is the interest amount=10,875
P is the principal amount= 25000
r is the interest rate = r
t is the number of years = 15
Plug in all the value in the formula
I = P*r*t
10875 = 25000 * r * 15
10875 = 375000 * r
Divide both sides by 375000
r=0.029
We always write rate of interest in percentage so we multiply by 100
0.029 * 100= 2.9%
So interest rate = 2.9%
Distance between the two cities:
453 - 333 = 120 miles.
Rest area is 2/3 of the way:
120 x 2/3 = 240/3 = 80 miles.
Divide the miles to the rest stop by his speed:
80 miles/ 60 miles per hour = 1 and 1/3 hours as a fraction. 1.3333 as a decimal( round as needed.
( 1 hour and 20 minutes)
Altogether he has 1 and 1/8 gallon of milk
