Two neighbors, Camila and Conner, hire the same plumber for household repairs. The plumber worked at Camila’s house for 3 hours and charged her $191. The plumber worked at Conner’s house for 1 hour and charged him $107.

Answer 1

Answer:
Camila's plumber worked for 3 hours and charged her $191, while Conner's plumber worked for 1 hour and charged him $107. To compare the rates of the two plumbers, we can calculate their respective rates per hour.

To find Camila's plumber's rate per hour, we divide the total charge of $191 by the number of hours worked, which is 3. So, Camila's plumber charged $191/3 = $63.67 per hour.

Similarly, to find Conner's plumber's rate per hour, we divide the total charge of $107 by the number of hours worked, which is 1. So, Conner's plumber charged $107/1 = $107 per hour.

From these calculations, we can see that Camila's plumber charged $63.67 per hour, while Conner's plumber charged $107 per hour. Therefore, Conner's plumber has a higher rate than Camila's plumber.

In summary:

- Camila's plumber charged $63.67 per hour.
