You work 20 hours a week at a store in our $8.50 per hour. At another job you earn $8.00 per hour and can work as many hours as you want. If you want to earn $370 for the week, how many hours will you need to work at the second job?

For the second job you work for $8.00 per hour and you want to make $370 for the week so its just simple division.

$370/$8.00 is 46.25 hours a day which means you will have to work close to 46-47 hours a day to make $370 in a week.
