Irene is looking for a job cutting hair. One option is self-employment at The Greenville Salon,

where she would pay $354 per month to rent a station and keep all of her earnings. Another
option is to work at a franchise, where she would just have to pay the salon $6 for every
haircut. If she performed a certain number of haircuts every month, the amount paid to
either salon would be the same. How much would Irene pay? How many haircuts would that
be?

Answer:

69

Explanation:

you divide 354 by 6 and get 69 so she must do 69 haircuts at the 6 dollar job to do the same as her self employment
