Question

John's Bikes rents bikes for $12 plus $7 per hour. Danielle paid $33 to rent a

bike. For how many hours did she rent the bike?

Answer 1

Danielle rented the bike for 3 hours

Explanation:

fixed price = $12

hourly price = $7 / hour

First deduct the fixed price:

$33 - $12

= $21

Next divide the remaining by the hourly price:

$21 ÷ $7/hour

= 3 hours
