Question

Please help me with this question thankyou.

Answer 1

Since the budget is 4500 dollars per month, and every month is made of 4 weeks, the weekly budget is

$\dfrac{4500}{4} = 1125$

We know that Mr Gleason takes home 900$ per week, so he almost make the whole budget: there are only $1125 - 900 = 225$ left.

If Mrs Gleason  brings home 9 dollars per hour, she'll have to work

$\dfrac{225}{9} = 25$ hours per week.
