Answer:

The answer is $74.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she earns $6.75 an hour, we need to multiple this amount with a number of hours she worked.

So on Monday she earned: 2h × $6.75 = $13.5

On Tuesday she earned: 5h × $6.75 = $33.75

On Thursday she earned: 4h × $6.75 = $27

This means that for a whole week she earned: $13.5 + $33.75 + $27 = $74.25

Another way to calculate this as to find the number of hours she worked and multiple it with her vague per hour ($6.75)

So, two hours on Monday + five hours on Tuesday + four hours on Thursday equals 11 hours.

Finally 11h × $6.75 = $74.25
