For a ride on a rental scooter, Ahmad paid an $8 fee to start the scooter plus 6 cents per minute of the ride. The total bill for Ahmad's ride was $14.96. For how many minutes did Ahmad ride the scooter?

$14.96 - $8 = $6.96

$6.69 (divide by cents per min)

$6.96 / $0.06 per min = 116 minutes of riding
