Question

A sports club rents dirt bikes for $\$37.50$ each. How do you find the total cost for the club to rent 20 bikes?

Answer 1

Hint: In this question we have been given the cost of rent for 1 bike and we have to find the total cost for the club to rent 20 bikes. So we will multiply the rent of 1 bike i. e. $\$37.50$ by 20 to get the desired answer.

Complete step-by-step solution:
We have been given that a sports club rents dirt bikes for $\$37.50$ each.
We have to find the total cost for the club to rent 20 bikes.
Now, as the cost of 1 rent bike is given and we have to calculate the total cost to rent 20 bikes, we will simply multiply the rent cost of one bike by 20 to get the total cost. Then we will get
\[\Rightarrow \$37.50\times20\]
Now, simplifying the above obtained equation we will get
\[\Rightarrow \$750.00\]
Hence we get that the total cost for the club to rent 20 bikes is \[\$750.00\].

Note: To solve such types of questions we can use the unitary method. In unitary method we have to find the cost of a single unit if not given then we can find the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value. Unitary method is used to find the value of a single unit from the multiple units. Also the point to be remembered is that if we have to find the value of multiple then we have to multiply the single unit value by the necessary number.
