Sam needs $16.00 more to buy a bike. Her mom will pay her $2.00 an hour for yard work. How many hours of pulling will Sam need to do to earn $16.00

Question

Word problem

Answer 1

Pulling weeds (I presume) at $2 per hour will take 8 hours of work to make the necessary $16 additional dollars.

Do you see any way that you might have found this answer yourself?

Example: 2 $/hr times h hours = $16.  Solve 2h = 16.
