Answer 1

To me, you really don't need to know how much or long Belinda since that you can find that she earns $70 a day.

Answer would be D.

Answer 2

The answer is D, Belinda works 6 hours each day because to solve, you need to find how many times 4 goes into 32 and multiply that by 280. 6 is not involved in the solving.
Hope this helps!
