The Martin family pays $5.33 more per hour

The Sanchez family pays $60 more in total

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sanchez family want her to babysit for 15.5 hours for a total of $150.

To find out the hourly rate you do $150/15.5 which is $9.67 per hour.

The Martin family wants her to babysit for a total of 6 hours for $15 an hour.

To find out the total you do $15 x 6 which is $90.
