Rob saved $30 to buy new Mp3 player.

Explanation:

Given:

Rob is saving money to buy a new Mp3 player.

For every $14 earned he saved $5.

For 14 dollars earned = Money Saved $5

Total money earned in babysitting = $84

We need to find Total money he saved.

Now 14 dollars earned = Money Saved $5

So 84 Dollars earned = Total Money saved

We will use Cross Multiplication method to find the Total Money saved.

Total Money Saved =
`(5*84)/(14) = \$30`

Hence Rob saved $30 to buy new Mp3 player.
