Answer:

20 mins.

Step-by-step explanation:

A babysitter charges a rate of $15 per hour. How long was the babysitter there if she makes $5?

x = hours she babysat

Equation:

15x = 5

Divide to isolate x:

15x = 5

/15   /15

x = 1/3 hrs.

Now, we convert into minutes, since she didn't work for a whole hour, to earn the $15

We know that there are 60 mins. in an hour

60 * 1/3

60/3

20 mins.

Therefore, the babysitter was there for 20 mins.
