Question

Mrs. Malone earns two hours of paid

vacation for every 9 days she works. How
many hours of paid vacation will Mrs. Malone
earn after working 81 days

Answer 1

Mrs. Malone would earn 512 hours of paid vacation time if she works of 81 days

Answer 2

18 vacation hours, because 9 goes into 81 nine times, and for each nine days she gets 2 hours vacation, so multiply 9•2=18 (this probably doesn’t make too much sense but it’s correct)
