#44# minutes and #24# seconds

Explanation:

We can write the following equation:

#65h=47.95# where, #h# is the hour charged. Also, we write #65h# because we are paying #$65# per hour. The word per indicates multiplication.

Given this, we can solve for #h#

We divide #65# from both sides:

#65/cancelcolor(red)65h=47.95/color(red)65#

#h~~0.74#

So the repair took about #0.74# hours which is about #44.4# or #44# minutes and #24# seconds
