Question

For a ride on a rental scooter, Deon paid an $8 fee to start the scooter plus 6 cents per minute of the ride. The total bill for Deon's ride was $11.96. For how many minutes did Deon ride the scooter? I minutes​

Answer 1

66 minutes

Explanation:

11.96 - 8 =3.96

Every 10 minutes Deon pays 60 cents because 6 times 10 = 60 and every 6 minutes Deon is paying 36 cents

10 min = 60 cents

20 min = $1.20

40 min = $2.40

50 min = $3.00

60 min = $3.60

6 min = 36 cents

Then you do 3.60 + 36 which equals $3.96

How to figure how the minutes is just 60 + 6 = 66 minutes
