Nicole works mowing lawns and babysitting. She earns $ 8.80 an hour for mowing and $7.70 an hour for babysitting. How much will she earn for 7 hours of mowing and 5 hours of babysitting?

Answer 1

To calculate Nicole's earnings, we need to multiply the number of hours worked by the hourly rate for each job and then add up the two amounts.

For 7 hours of mowing, she earns:
7 hours x $8.80/hour = $61.60

For 5 hours of babysitting, she earns:
5 hours x $7.70/hour = $38.50

To find the total, we add the two amounts:
$61.60 + $38.50 = $100.10

Therefore, Nicole will earn $100.10 for 7 hours of mowing and 5 hours of babysitting.
