Solution

The correct option is B $4$ hours
Let Jane plays for $x$ hours.
The amount of money, she have to pay for playing $x$ hours $= 8 + 5 x$
Given that Jane has $$ 28$ .
$\Rightarrow 8 + 5 x = 28$
Step 1: Subtract $8$ from both the sides of the equation
$\Rightarrow 8 + 5 x - 8 = 28 - 8$
$\Rightarrow 5 x = 20$

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation i.e. $5 x = 20$ by $5$

$\Rightarrow \frac{5 x}{5} = \frac{20}{5}$

$\Rightarrow x = 4$
Jane can play for $4$ hours by spending $$ 28$
