Question

Mis wants to earn 2,000 in her job at a bicycle store. She is paid $55 for each bicycle she tunes up. The minimum number of bicycles Mia needs to tune up to reach her goal of $2,500 is?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ok. you said 2000 and 2500 so I'll just solve for both.

this is very simple, mis/mia wants to earn 2000/2500 so let's solve

this can be done two ways. an equation way, or a dividing way. I personally like the dividing way.

2000 divided by 55= 36.36-- so she will have to tune up 37 bicycles

2500 divided by 55= 45.45-- so she will have to tune 46 bicycles. this is because 46 bicycles, times the amount of money == just a little over 2500 so she has reached  her goal
