Working hours

Since Mahmoud is a school student who just started working during the weekend, and he earns $ 14 per hour and he would like to buy a game that costs $ 80 which will have a 13% tax applied to it upon purchase, and Mahmoud would like to buy the game but only if he is able to save 30% of the money he will make, to determine how many hours would Mahmoud have to work the following calculation must be performed:

• 14X x 0.3 = 80 x 1.13
  
• 14X x 0.3 = 90.4
  
• 14X = 90.4 / 0.3
  
• X = 301.33 / 14
  
• X = 21.52
  

Therefore, Mahmoud will have to work 21.52 hours to buy the game.
