Dennis sister charges 550 per hour before 9 p. m. for babysitting and $8 per hour after 9 p. m. she finished babysitting at 11 p. m. and earn $38 at what time did she begin babysitting

Since we know what time Dennis' sister finished babysitting, we can calculate how much money she's made since 9p.m. Between 9 and 11 is 2 hours, so we know she made $16 ($8 per hour x 2 hours).

That means she made $22 before 9p.m. ($32 total - $16 made past 9p.m.)

So, you just need to figure out how many hours $22 is worth and subtract that number of hours from 9p.m. That will get you to the starting point of babysitting.

$22 / $5.50 = 4     so we know that $22 is 4 hours' worth of babysitting.

9p.m. - 4 hours is 5p.m., so we know that Dennis' sister started babysitting at 5p.m.
