Question

If my last paycheck way $107.78 and I work for 3 and a half hours a day for 5 days, how much do I make an hour?

Answer 1

$6.16

Explanation:

Total amount paid = $107.78

Total time worked = 3 and half hours for 5 days

`=3(1)/(2)\cdot 5\\ \\=(7)/(2)\cdot 5\\ \\=(35)/(2) \ hours`

Amount earned per hour

`=\$107.78:(35)/(2)\\ \\=\$107.78\cdot (2)/(35)\\ \\\approx \$6.16`
