Jessica is starting a computer repair business out of her home. She plans to charge $25 per
hour. Her expected monthly costs will be $45 to rent tools, $515 to buy materials and spare
parts, and $65 for a business phone. Find the number of hours she must work in a month to
make a profit of $1025.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Her spendings is this sum 45 + 515 + 65 = 625 dollars.
She wants to cover these spendings plus make a profit of 1025 dollars,
so she is going to make 625 + 1025 = 1650 dollars.
To find the number of hours, divide 1650 dollars by the rate of 25 dollars per hour
= 66.
ANSWER. 66 hours to work.
