Question 178177:  can someone please help me with this problem I tried to do it myself but keep getting it wrong.
 
	A repair bill on a yacht came to $1,603 including $532 for parts and the remainder for labor. If the cost of labor is $63 per hour, how many hours of labor did it take to repair the yacht?

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! A repair bill on a yacht came to $1,603 including $532 for parts and the remainder for labor. If the cost of labor is $63 per hour, how many hours of labor did it take to repair the yacht? 
-------------------------------- 
Repair = parts + labor 
1603 = 532 + labor 
labor = 1071 
-------------- 
labor hrs = 1071/63 = 17 hrs to carry out the repair
