Define a variable ** Let G stand for the number of GB billed, so the total bill is $0.25G + $45 flat rate charge = $65 total bill.
Simplify ** Now we will solve for G. $0.25G + $45 flat rate - $45 = $65 -$45. This simplifies to $0.25G = $20
Simplify ** $0.25G/$0.25 = $20/$0.25
How many GB over was Chris charged for on this bill? ** G = 80 GB were charged on this bill.
