PSLE The table shows the charges for scooter rental. Mark rented a scooter from 11.39 a.m. to 2.22 p.m.. How much did he pay?
Scooter rental |
Charges |
First hour |
$4 |
Additional 12 hour or part thereof |
$1.20 |
From 11.39 a.m. to 12.39 p.m. = 1 h
From 12.39 p.m. to 2.22 p.m. = 1 h 43 min = 103 min
Sets of additional
12 hour
= 103 ÷ 30
= 3 r 13
Total number of sets of additional
12 hour and part thereof to pay for
= 3 + 1
= 4
Amount to pay from 11.39 a.m. to 12.39 a.m. = $4
Amount to pay from 12.39 a.m. to 2.22 p.m. = 4 x 1.20 = $4.80
Total amount that Mark paid
= 4 + 4.80
= $8.80
Answer(s): $8.80
