Sally's Dilemma
Sima, 6J, Louis-Honoré Fréchette P.S.

Sally wants to become a babysitter and she is offered two posts. The Jones' family offered her $5 per hour for four hours each Saturday. The Parker family offered $6.50 per hour for two and a half hours every Saturday as well. Both deals seem pretty good but Sally doesn't know which one to pick.




 If Sally agreed with Mr. Jones' offer, how much will she get in a month? How about Ms. Parker's offer? Which busy parent is ready to pay more?
