Question

At Hoffman’s bike rentals it cost $14 to rent a bike for 3 hours. how many hours of bike use does a customer get per dollar? Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Answer 1

The problem asks how many hours does the custom get per dollar.

So, a division of hours per dollar is required.

Since it is known that the customer gets 3 hours for $14 dollars, dividing 3 by 14 we will get the answer:

`(3)/(14)=0.21\text{ h per dollar}`

Answer: The customer gets 0.21 h per dollar.
