Question

Kendall is starting a new small business and working everyday to make it a success. She earned $952 in 7 days. Assume she will continue to earn money as the same rate and write this rate as a fraction with 30 in the denominator.

Answer 1

$4080 / 30days

Explanation:

In 7 days, Kendall earns $952

In 1 day, she will earn $952 ÷ 7 = $136

Therefore, the rate (r) at which she earns is $136/day. i.e

r = $136/day ---------------(i)

To write the rate as a fraction with 30 in the denominator, we multiply both the numerator and denominator of equation (i) by 30 as follows;

r = $(136x30) / 30 day

r = $4080/30days
