It takes sami 10 minute to shovel the snow 20 m2 area. he charges 5 dollars for half an hour . how much will he charge to shovel the snow of a sidewalk that has a dimensions of 2m x 40m.

Last, we just multiply his half-hour rate by the amount of half hours he is shoveling for:


I'll let you simplify the fraction.

The answer would be d
