Assuming both rented from the same store and the rental price is the same.

$230 - $125 = $105
5hours - 2hours = 3hours
3hours = $105
1 hour = $105 รท 3 = $35
So the price of 1 of one hour rental is $35.

2hours = $35 x 2 = $70
Lori paid $125
Therefore the flat setup fee = $125 - $70 = $55

Ans: Setup fee = $55, rental fee = $35/hour
