Tomas Montgomery · Answer 1

Gina can rent a surfboard for 9 hrs

Taylor Bullock · Answer 2

There is a beginning payment of $20. First, subtract $20 from $90 to find out how much money she has to pay for the hours.

$90 - $20 = $70

$70 is for the hours. Now we divide $70 by $5 per hour to find the number of hours.

$70/$5 = 14

Answer: 14 hours
