Question

If Francesca rents a bicycle for 2 hours and Phil rents a bicycle for 6 hours, how much more does Phil pay?

Answer 1

Phil is paying 3 times what Francesca payed.

Explanation:

Since Phil rented the bike for 6 hours, and Francesca rented a bike for 2 hours, and 6 is 3 times 2. (3x2=6)

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

$26

Explanation:

To find your answer, simply plug in Francesca's time and Phil's time to your cost equation.

Francesca can be represented by the following equation:

c=6.5(2)\\c=13

Phil can be represented by the following equation:

c=6.5(6)\\c=39

As such, Francesca pays $13 and Phil pays $39. Next, since you want to find how much more Phil paid, all you have to do is subtract 13 from 39. That will give you $26
