Peter worked 2 part-time jobs and earned $189.00 for working a total of 24 hours at both jobs. He is paid $6.00 per hour at Job A abs $9.00 per hour at Job B. How many hours did Peter work at Job A?

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
