Question

Macy is tutoring students in mathematics during her summer break. She charges $20 for a 30 minute session and $35 for an hour. The graph shows the number of 30 minute and 1 hour sessions she needs to have in order to make $280.

During her first week of tutoring, she only has 1 hour sessions, but makes exactly $280. How many tutoring sessions did Macy have during the first week?

Since Macy only had one hour sessions, divide the total she made by the price of the one hour session.

280 / 35 = 8 tutoring sessions
