Question

Sara rents a boat for 1 day with her friends Mary, Janet and Suzy. The charge for the

rental is $40.00 plus 12.50 per hour while she is on the lake. She wants to spend
exactly $121.00 for her "fun on the water day." Thus, how many hours of "fun on the
water" doe she get to have with her friends?

Answer 1

The closest answer I got was 2.3hours of fun.

Explanation:

add $40.00 and $12.50=$52.50

divide 121.00 by 52.5 you get 2.3 .
