Question

Fatuma recently hired an electrician to do some necessary work. On the final bill, Fatuma was charged a total of $708. $480 was listed for parts and the rest for labor. If the hourly rate for labor was $57, how many hours of labor was needed to complete the job?

Answer 1

Answer:

4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to subtract $480 from $708.

$708-$480= $228.

Because the hourly rate is $57 we need to divide 228 by 57.

228÷57=4

The answer is 4 hours.
