First multiply how many hours the painter has worked with how much that painter makes an hour.

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

7*15.20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then after you find that subtract that from how much the painter made.

A self-serve car wash charges $5.02 to use its facilities, plus an additional $0.97 for each minute the customer is at the self-serve car wash. If Tiffany was at the car wash for 8 minutes, how much was she charged? $12.78 $7.76 $5.99 $13.02

You have to subtract what you got from 7*15.2 from 187.25 to get your answer.
