For a two-day rental at the surf shop, it cost $55 to rent a surf board and $70 to rent a paddle board. On a certain weekend, the surf shop rented 51 total surf boards and paddle boards and made $3300. How many paddle boards were rented?

7 paddleboards

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, you have to find the total amount that they earned by renting surfboards.

To find this you multiply 55 x 51 =2,805.

Then you use this factor and subtract it from the total amount they earned.

$3,300 - $2,805 = $495.

This shows us that they earned a total of $495 from renting out paddle boards. To find out how many paddle boards were rented out you have to divide $495 by $70 which is how much they charge to rent paddle boards.

495/70 = 7

In conclusion, they rented out 7 paddle boards.

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.
