You work as a cashier for a grocery store and earn $6 per hour. You also mow lawns and earn $3 per hour. You want to earn at least $30 per week, but you would like to work no more than 12 hours per week

Respuesta :

To figure this out, all we need to do is some simple division. First, let's divide the $30 we want to earn per week by the $6 per hour and the $3 per hour we'll earn doing each of those jobs.

30 ÷ 6 = 5

30 ÷ 3 = 10

Now, let's see how much money we'd earn if we worked both jobs for 6 hours.

6 * 6 = 36

3 * 6 = 18

There we have it, if we worked both jobs 6 hours each, a total of 12 hours per week, we'd make $54.


Here's your answer:

Working a total of 12 hours a week, 6 hours at the grocery store, 6 hours mowing lawns, you can make $54.00 per week.


Hope this helped you out. :)
