On the last day of the month, Sandra has to pay her daughter's preschool tuition and late pick-up fees. Tutition is $560.30 per month and each fee for a child who is picked up late is $5.60. If Sandra wrote a check for $588.30, how many days did she pick up her daughter late from preschool? I believe it's 28 but just wanna double check

Well, write this as an equation
$$588.30=560.30+5.60x$$
You got the first step of subtracting 560.30
And getting $$28=5.60x$$
