Question

Moshde runs a hairstyling business from her house. She charges $41 for a haircut and style. Her monthly expenses are $1170. She wants to be able to put at least $1,140 per month into her savings account order to open her own salon. How many "cut & styles" must she do to save at least $1,140 per month?

Answer 1

28 "cut & styles"

Explanation:

The amount for a haircut and style,

→ x = $41

The money she wants for her savings,

→ y = $1140

The number of "cut & styles" she must do to save $1,140 per month is,

→ y/x

→ 1140/41

→ 27.8048780488

→ ≈ 28 "cut & styles"

Hence, she must do 28 "cut & styles".
