Question

Taylor earned $48 for 6 hours of babysitting and $68 for 8.5 hours of babysitting. How long would she have to babysit to earn $32?

Answer 1

First figure out how much Taylor earns per 1 hour:
48 ÷ 6 = 8
Since 4 x 8 = 32, your answer will be: $32

Answer 2

First you need to find the unit rate,

So you divide 48 by 6 which you get $8

Then you divide 32 by 8 which you get 4

The answer is 4 hours
