Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of hours = h

Equation to calculate the cost of cleaning your house

Klean company = 20 + 25h

Dustbuster cleaning services = 35h

Find the number of hours when the cost of cleaning house by both companies will be equal

Klean company = Dustbuster cleaning services

20 + 25h = 35h
