Kendall · Answer 1

He would need to work 6 hours to earn the money.

Chaim Turner · Answer 2

The answer is that he would have to work 6 hours to have enough money to buy the glove.

Step-by-step explanation:

1: Find the amount he needs to earn by subtracting $14 from $50: 50 - 14 = 36. So he needs to earn $36.00.

2: Since you have to find the amount of hours, you can divide $6 from $36 to get the amount of hours he needs to work: 36 / 6 = 6. Eamon only gets $6.00 per hour so he would have to work 6 hours to get the $36.00.
