Answer:
$8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Latisha hired 4 in the last month. She paid a total of $170 in babysitting fees.
To Find : If each baby sitter work a total 5 hours and is paid the same amount how much did each baby sitter earn per hour?
Solution ;
Total no. of babysitters = 4
Total payment = $170
Pay of 1 babysitter = [tex]\frac{170}{4}=42.5[/tex]
Each babysitter earned for 5 hours = 42.5
Each babysitter earned for 1 hour = [tex]\frac{42.5}{5} =8.5[/tex]
Hence each baby sitter earn per hour $8.5
