Given:
Base fee = $2.50
Hourly rate = $4.00
Total money = $12.50
Determine how many hours can you park.
Solution:
In order to determine how many hours can the car be parked, we must first subtract the base from the total money, then divide the difference by the hourly rate.
= $12.50 - $2.50
= $10.50
= $10.50 / 4.00
= 2.6 hours or 2 hours and 36 minutes
Final answer:
2.6 hours or 2 hours and 36 minutes
