Question

Joe works mowing lawns and babysitting. He earns $9.10 an hour for mowing and $7.90 an hour for babysitting. How much will he earn for 1 hour of mowing and 5 hours of babysitting?

Answer 1

Joe would receive $9.10 for One hour of mowing the lawn and $39.50 for Five hours of babysitting, which (if needed) adds up to $48.60

Explanation:

It's as simple as multiplication. Since he only mowed the lawn for one hour, it would only be $9.10. Since he babysat for 5 hours, you'd simply multiply $7.90 by five, giving you the answer $39.50
