Question

Tim mowed lawns for 2 hours and earned $7.50 per hour. Then he washed windows for 4 hours and earned $6.30 per hour. What were Tim's average earnings per hour for all 6 hours? *

Answer 1

$40.20

Explanation:

$7.50 per hour. Tim worked for 2 hours so you would do 2 timez 7.5 which is $15, the total he earned from mowing.

$6.30 per hour. Tim worked for 4 hours so you would do 4 times 6.3 which is $25.2, the total he earned from washing windows.

To get the total of how much he earned all together you add 15 and 25.2 and you get $40.2.
