Question

Usha had a balance of -$84. She worked for 6 days and put half the money in the bank. Now she has a balance of -$45. How much does Usha get paid each day for newspaper delivery?

Answer 1

Answer:

$13

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much she put into the bank:

84 - 45 = $39

Then, multiply this by 2 to find how much she made, because this was half of the money she got:

39(2) = 78

Then, divide this by 6 to find how much she makes a day:

78/6 = 13

= $13
