Question

A parking garage charges a 3.50$ base fee plus an hourly rate of 7.00$. If you have at most 21.50$ to pay for parking, how long can you park?

Answer 1

You get a total of two hours of parking.

Explanation:

First, you subtract the base fee of $3.50, which gives you $18.00. Then you subtract as many sevens there are in 18, which is two. And then your answer is shown, as two. Hope this helps!
