PSLE The table shows the charges for bicycle rental. Sean rented a bicycle from 11.19 a.m. to 4.13 p.m.. How much did he pay?
Bicycle rental |
Charges |
First hour |
$5 |
Additional 12 hour or part thereof |
$1.90 |
From 11.19 a.m. to 12.19 p.m. = 1 h
From 12.19 p.m. to 4.13 p.m. = 3 h 54 min = 234 min
Sets of additional
12 hour
= 234 ÷ 30
= 7 r 24
Total number of sets of additional
12 hour and part thereof to pay for
= 7 + 1
= 8
Amount to pay from 11.19 a.m. to 12.19 a.m. = $5
Amount to pay from 12.19 a.m. to 4.13 p.m. = 8 x 1.90 = $15.20
Total amount that Sean paid
= 5 + 15.20
= $20.20
Answer(s): $20.20
