Question

During the summer, you work 25 hours per week at the Twist Ice

Cream Shop and earn $8.00 per hour. You also mow lawns in your
neighborhood for $10 per hour and can work as many hours as
you want. You want to earn a total of $500 per week.

Answer 1

So for the 25 hours at the “Twist Ice Cream Shop” you would get $200 a week, so that would would mean you need $300 more. So by mowing the lawns 30 hours a week you would get $500 dollars in total.

Twist Ice Cream Shop:
$200 a week for 25 hours

Mowing Lawns:
$300 a week for 30 hours

In total:
$500 a week for 55 hours
