The complete question is,
George wants to buy a $200 bike by the end of the summer. He decides to do odd jobs to earn the money for the bike. He mows lawns, washes cars, and waxes cars. His rates are $10 for a mowed lawn, $8 for a washed car, and $4 for a waxed car. By the end of June, George has mowed 10 lawns, washed 8 cars, and waxed 6 cars. How much more money does he need to buy the bike?
Rate for a mowed lawn =$10
Rate for a washed car =$ 8
Rate for a waxed car = $4
George has mowed 10 lawns = 10 × 10 = $100
He wash 8 cars = 8 × 8 =$ 64
and waxed 6 cars = 6 × 4 = $24
Total income = 100 + 64 + 24 = $188
Cost of bike = $200
So, amount needed to buy the bike = 200 - 188 = $12
