Show your work

Answer 1

it isn't obvious from your problem statement where the missing numbers are in your table. We have assumed that Barbara charges the same hourly rate for all mowing jobs, so the red numbers were the ones that were missing.

Since we know our times-8 and times-9 times tables, all the work is mental. There is nothing to show. Each number in the Dollars column is 8 times the number in the Hours column.

B) See the table on the right. Again, we know our times tables. 5*9 = 45, and so on.

C) 45 -40 = 5

Barbara earns 5 dollars more at the theme park for 5 hours' work than she does mowing lawns. (Check: The rate difference is $1 per hour, so the difference in earnings will be $5 for 5 hours.)
