Stream of consciousness rationale: In a week, Latia earns 30 * 10 = $300. In a month, she earns 300 * 4 = $1200. If the TV was worth $1700, the total amount she has to work for to buy the TV is 1700 - 1200 = $500. Since she earns $10 per hour, she'll have to work for $500 / $10 = 50 more hours to buy the TV.
The question and answer pair are described below.
