Final Answer :
(50+675)=62.5 (50+675)=62.5 (50+675)=62.5
1,725=62.5⋅t 1,725=62.5 \cdot t 1,725=62.5⋅t
t=1.725/62.5=27.6 t=1.725 / 62.5=27.6 t=1.725/62.5=27.6 hours
(27.6−27)⋅60=36 (27.6-27) \cdot 60=36 (27.6−27)⋅60=36 minutes
27 hours, 36 minutes
0.54⋅1.725+50⋅27.6=$2.311.50 0.54 \cdot 1.725+50 \cdot 27.6=\$ 2.311 .50 0.54⋅1.725+50⋅27.6=$2.311.50
1,725=62.5⋅t 1,725=62.5 \cdot t 1,725=62.5⋅t
t=1.725/62.5=27.6 t=1.725 / 62.5=27.6 t=1.725/62.5=27.6 hours
(27.6−27)⋅60=36 (27.6-27) \cdot 60=36 (27.6−27)⋅60=36 minutes
27 hours, 36 minutes
0.54⋅1.725+50⋅27.6=$2.311.50 0.54 \cdot 1.725+50 \cdot 27.6=\$ 2.311 .50 0.54⋅1.725+50⋅27.6=$2.311.50
