Answer:
I think the answer is 0.2683281573
Amount needed=earned+already have
205=earned+30
earned=7 times number of hours=7h
205≤7h+30
we used the less than or equal to because he needs at least 205, means 205 or greater must be earned
205≤7h+30
minus 30 both sides
175≤7h
divide both sides by 7
25≤h
needs to work at least 25 hours
6.1% of 36,000 = 2196
36,000-2196=33,804
