You can rent a canoe for 5 hours -- and have 2 dollars left over.

Thank you!

You're welcome.

To find out how many hours you can rent a canoe for no more than $25, we need to set up an equation based on the given information.

Let "x" represent the number of hours you can rent the canoe. According to the question, the cost of renting a canoe is $8 plus $3 per hour or any part of an hour.

So the equation becomes:

8 + 3x ≤ 25

To solve for "x," we can subtract 8 from both sides of the equation:

3x ≤ 25 - 8

This simplifies to:

3x ≤ 17

Dividing both sides by 3, we get:

x ≤ 17/3

Since we cannot rent a fraction of an hour, round down the result to the nearest whole number:

x ≤ 5

Therefore, you can rent a canoe for no more than 5 hours if you want to spend no more than $25.
