If he makes $8 per hour while babysitting, then if he works 3 hours - then he’d get $24 for babysitting.

He still has to make $176.
He can work 18 hours, if he uses up 3 hours babysitting, he has 15 hours left.

15 hours times $15 = 225 (too much)
12 hours times $15 = $180 ( he saves three hours)

He has to do 12 hours of life guarding to meet his goal - he will have three spare hours.

Sorry if I’m wrong, I think I’m right tho

<h2>What we know</h2>

We know that Daniel is working two summer jobs, making $8 per hour babysitting and making $15 per hour lifeguarding. He can work a maximum of 18 total hours and must earn no less than $200.  

<h3> </h3><h2>What we need to know </h2>

We need to determine the minimum number of whole hours of lifeguarding that he must work to meet his requirements.

<h2>Show your work </h2>

He worked 3 hours babysitting and he can work a total of 18 hours a week and earn no less than $200. First, we must subtract:

18 - 3 = 15

Daniel can work 15 hours lifeguarding but we still need to figure out how much money he will make. He makes $15 per hour lifeguarding so we will multiply:

15 x 18 = 270.

Since Daniel needs to make $200, he cannot work for 18 hours that is too much money. What we can do is multiply smaller numbers until we get a minimum of $200.

15 x 17 = 255

15 x 16 = 240

15 x 15 = 225

15 x 14 = 210

15 x 13 = 195

Daniel can make no less than $200 so our answer should be 14 hours but we must check our work first.

 

<h2>Check your work</h2>

To check our work, we divide:

200 ÷ 15 = 13.3

The answer cannot be 13 though because it is too small therefore, the answer is 14 hours.

<h2>   </h2><h2>Answer </h2>

If Daniel life guards for 14 hours he will make $210
