Rashid is paid by the hour. He earned $50 for a 4-hours workday. How much does he earn for a 5 1/2

50 divided by 4 = 12.5 dollars per hour.

$12.5 x 5.5 = $68.75


I hope I helped and got it right

You would need to find how much he earns an hour and then see how much he would earn in 5.5 hours. Multiply 50/4 and then multiply your answer by 5 1/2 which you would get $12.5. Then multiply that by 5 1/2 which would be your answer $68.75.

Answer: $68.75
