Question

kAITLIN EANRS $6.50 FOR EACH HOUR SHE WORKS. ON FRIDAY SHE WORKED FOR 3 HOURS. SHE ALSO WORKED ON SATURDAY. IF SHE EARNED A TOTAL OF $52.00 FOR TWO DAYS OF WORK, HOW MANY HOURS DID SHE WORK ON SATURDAY

Answer 1

She worked for five hours on Saturday.

Step by step: 3 hours × $6.50= $19.50

then take the amount of money she made in total and subtract what she made on Friday to find how much she made on Saturday

$52 - $19.50= $32.50

Now take how much she made on Saturday and divide that by $6.50 to find how many hours she worked on Saturday

$32.50 ÷ $6.50= 5 hours
