Question

Maurice earns 1.75$ for each chore he completes. Write an equation to find t, the total amount earned for c chores in one week

Answer 1

t=7(1.75c)

Explanation:

If I assume that she does the same number of chores each day the equation is t=7(1.75c)

this is because c is the number of chores

and for each chore she earns 1.75 so then for each day it is 1.75c

there are 7 days in a week so you need to multiply that all by 7

so that is 7(1.75c)

that little equation finds the total amount earned so then it is

t=7(1.75c)
