A car repair bill was $441. This included $153 for parts and four hours of labor . Find the hourly rate I was charge for labor

Subtract the cost of parts from the total repair bill to get the labor cost:
Labor Cost = Total Bill - Parts Cost
Labor Cost = 441 - 153
Labor Cost = 288

Labor Cost can be broken down into Labor divided by hours
Hourly Labor Rate = Labor Cost / Labor Hours
Hourly Labor Rate = = 288 / 4
Hourly Labor Rate = 72
