Problem
Write and solve an equation for the following problem. Joni put 5 quarters into a parking meter to pay for 95 minutes of time. If she received the same amount of time on the meter for each quarter, how many minutes did she get for each quarter?
Solution
For this case we know that Joni pay 5 quartes for 95 minutes so then we can find the number of minutes per each quarter dividing the number of minutes by the number of quarters and we got:
95 minutes/ 5 quarters= 19 minutes/ quarter
And for this case we can conclude that the total amount of time per each quarter is about 19 minutes
