Question

Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 15 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours.

Together they charged a total of $1250. What was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates
was $140 per hour?

Answer 1

It’s not 140 because to you have to add the hours they worked do 20x62= 12,40 and 20x 63=12,60 so it’s between 62 and 63 $
