Explanation:

Data:

Amount of money per hour: X $

Amount of hours worked: 8h.

Amount Earned: Y $

In case, you know X (AMOUNT OF MONEY PER HOUR):

One hour (1h) is equivalent to X.

Eight hours (8h) - How much would it be?

Answer:

1. Multiply 8 (numbers of hour worked) per X (amount of money per hour)

Example 1:

If X = 10$

8 hours * 10 $ = 80$

Juan worked 8 hours, and earned 80$

Example 2:

If X = 20$

8 hours * 20$ = 160$

Juan worked 8 hours, and earned 160$.

In case you know Y (TOTAL AMOUNT EARNED)

Eight hours (8h) are equivalent to Y.

One hour - How much would it be?

Answer:

1. Divide Y into total hours worked (8H).

Example 3:

If Y = 200$

200 $ / 8 hours = 25$

Per hour Juan earns 25$

Example 4:

If Y = 400$

400$ / 8 hours = 50$

Per hour Juan earns 50$.
