Iwan earns $8 each time he walks his neighbor's dog. He already walked the dog 5 times. How many more times does he need to walk the dog to earn enough money to buy a game that costs $88?

Answer:

about 3 times

8 X 5 = 40 dollars

88 divided by 40 is 2.2

Answer:

6 more times.

Explanation:

He has so far made $8x5=$40.

He needs to make another $48. (As $88 - $40 = $48)

If he earns $8 for each walk that will be $48 divided by $8 = 6 more times. Hope this helps.
