Question

Which equation fits the word problem? Katie rented a bike from James' Bikes. It cost $19 plus $6 per hour. If Katie paid $49, then he rented the bike for how many hours?​

Answer 1

5 hours

Explanation:

49(total)-19(base charge) = 30(rented money needed). 6 times 5 = 30. So, Katie paid 5 hours. Kind of confusing but trust me. Hope this helps

Answer 2

5 hours

Explanation:

19+6=25 1

25+6=31 2

31+6=37 3

37+6=43 4

43+6=49 5
