Layla earned $42.00 babysitting in two days. she worked 2.25 hours yesterday and 3.25 hours today. if layla was paid the same amount every hour she works , how much did she earn per hour?

Well if she earned the same amount per hour the hours can be added. 2.25 + 3.25 = 5.5 hours. To get the rate of earning per hour you would then divide the total made by the total time worked. 42/5.5 = $7.64 approximately.

Hope i can you!
