    Answer: Lincoln needs to work for 23hrs to have enough money to buy a new bike

    Step-by-step expression

    Lincoln is saving $360

    He has $85

    He can earn $12hr

    Step 1: Make an Equation

    12h + 85 = 360

    Step 2: Solve for h

    12h + 85 = 360

    -subtract 85 on both sides

    12h = 275

    -divide 12 on both sides

    h = 22.91

    h ≈ 23

    Step 3: Check your work

    12h + 85 = 360

    12 (23) + 85 = 360

    276 + 85 = 360

    361 ≈ 360
