Question

BELL RINGER #2

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 2 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many hours she worked for $210, you must get the amount of money she gets in 1 hour.

Because she charges $43 dollars every hour, and fines a fee of $30 flat, we must add both of the amount to get how many she earns in 1 hour.

So:

$45 + $30= $75

She earn $75 in 1 hour.

Next, divide $210 dollars that she earned for working for hour(s) to the amount of money she earned in 1 hour to find how many hours she worked.

So:

$210 ÷ $75= 2.8 hours

The answer is 2.8 hours

Because the given answers is in fraction, we must change the decimal into a fraction.

To change a decimal into a fraction, you must place the decimal over its place value.

Because 8 in the decimal 2.8 is in the tenths place, you must place it over 10

So:

2.8 into a decimal is 2 8/10

Simplify (only simplify if possible):

Divide 8 and 10 to their GCF which is 2.

So:

8 ÷ 2= 4

10 ÷ 2= 5

So the fraction and the answer is now:

2 4/5

I hope this helps! I'm sorry if it's wrong and too complicated.
