Question

In addition to an $80 bonus Joan earned eight dollars per hour working last week Joans total earnings last week or $240 how many total hours did she work last week

Answer 1

20hrs

Explanation:

We need to find out how many hours she worked last week.

The bonus added $80 to the money she got from her hours worked so lets take that away:

240-80=160

Since she gets $8/hr we should divide 160 by 8

160÷8=20

Answer 2

20 hours

hope it helps

Explanation:

total earnings was $240 but to find how much he made working you first have to deduct the $80 bonus

240 - 80 = 160

so he made $160 working now to find out how many hours worked you have to divide by 8 because he got paid $8.00 an hour

160 ÷ 8 = 20
