Question

olivia makes $10 per lawn she miss and earns $20 in tips carlos earns $12 per lawn he mows and earns $15 in tips how many lawns would they have to mow in order to earn the same amount of money

Answer 1

You will add 10 & 20. This gives us 30. The total amount is important because we need it to find the answer. 12 + 15 is 27. Now, you will find the LCM (lowest common multiple.) The answer would be 270 because 30 x 7 is 270, and 27 x 10 is 270. This gives us 270. :)
