Question

I have $12 in the bank and I receive $4/hr babysitting. How many hours do I need to babysit to have $60?

pls show work ​

Answer 1

You need to work 12 hours

Explanation:

If you have already 12 dollars in the bank you will need to subtract them from your goal, since as said you already have them. Then, you divide 48 (dollars) by 4 (dollars) and you will get the amount of hours, 12.

Answer 2

12 hours

Explanation:

You have $12 in your bank and you need to get to $60 so

60-12= 48 , you need 48 dollars to reach to 60

48/4 = 12 hours. So if you get paid 4 dollars an hours, you only need to work 12 hours
