Answer:

if his car-wash job gives him $400 then he should only work 8 hours walking dogs to reach 520. Though it says to earn 'more than $520' so maybe 9hrs?

Step-by-step explanation:

He already has $400, which leave $120. 120 divided by 15 equals 8.

Answer:

Dan needs to walk dogs for at least 9 hours in order to earn more than $520 a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since his car wash attendant job pays $400 a week then you can subtract that from your final revenue.

$520-$400=$120

Now, to find out how many hours he has to walk dogs for in order to earn more than $520, you need to know some basic multiplication so...

$15×8=$120

...but he needs to earn MORE than $520 so...

$15×9=$135

$400+$135=$535.
