Question

A parking garage has spaces for 70 cars and charges each driver $6 per day for parking. If the garage is full, how much more would the garage owner make if he charged $8 per day?

Answer 1

When the garage owner charges $6 per parking space he will make $420 because 70×6=420. When the garage owner charges $8 per parking space he will make $560 because 70×8=560. Hope this helps!
