PSLE The table shows the charges for bicycle rental. Tim rented a bicycle from 11.24 a.m. to 3.46 p.m.. How much did he pay?
Bicycle rental |
Charges |
First hour |
$2 |
Additional 12 hour or part thereof |
$1.90 |
From 11.24 a.m. to 12.24 p.m. = 1 h
From 12.24 p.m. to 3.46 p.m. = 3 h 22 min = 202 min
Sets of additional
12 hour
= 202 ÷ 30
= 6 r 22
Total number of sets of additional
12 hour and part thereof to pay for
= 6 + 1
= 7
Amount to pay from 11.24 a.m. to 12.24 a.m. = $2
Amount to pay from 12.24 a.m. to 3.46 p.m. = 7 x 1.90 = $13.30
Total amount that Tim paid
= 2 + 13.30
= $15.30
Answer(s): $15.30
