Carlos is saving money to buy a set of golf clubs that cost $530. He already has $80.00 saved and can earn the rest of the money by mowing 15 lawns. If m represents how much he earns for mowing each lawn, which of the following equations can be solved to find how much Carlos is paid for mowing each lawn?

Answer 1

The amount Carlos needs to earn is $530 - $80 = $<<530-80=450>>450.
Carlos earns m * 15 = 450 by mowing 15 lawns.
Carlos is paid m = 450 / 15 = $<<450/15=30>>30 for mowing each lawn. Answer: \boxed{m \cdot 15 = 450}.
