Question 749168: Having your car repaired. The machanic said it would cost at least $375 for parts and labor. If the cost of the parts was $150, and the mechanic charges $60 an hour, how many hours is the mechanic planning to work on the car? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! ( parts + labor ) - ( parts ) = labor
( labor cost ) / ( cost / hr ) = hrs
The mechanics hours will be 3 hrs and 45 min
