Angela works at a job that pays $9.46 per hour. She works for 30 hours per week.

Compute the total amount that Angela makes in one week.

$
283.8




Assume that there are four weeks per month. Compute the total amount Angela makes per month.

$
1,135.2




Angela is using the Quantitative Reasoning Process to make a decision. She needs to know how much she makes in one year. Sometimes the values we get from our calculations depend on the assumptions we make. The following questions show that Angela will get different values for the amount she makes in a year depending on the assumption she chooses.



Assume that Angela gets paid once per week. Multiply the amount she makes in one week by 52 to find the total she will make in one year.

$
14,757.6




Assume that Angela gets paid once per month. Multiply the amount she makes in one month by 12 to find the total she will make in one year.
