Answer:

5 hours  was Aaron at the sitter

Explanation:

Cost of baby sitting for the first hour: 10

Cost of baby sitting for additional hour= 12

Total cost of babysitting= 58

Since the cost of first hour is 10

Hence  the remaining cost after first hour

= 54-10

=48

Which means 1 hour  is consumed in the first hour

Now to calculate the remaining hours for every additional hour

= [tex]\frac{48}{12}[/tex]

=4 hours

Hence the total hour Aaron was with the sitter

= 1 hour + 4 hours

= 5 hours
