Question

works as a florist and worked 12 hours last week and earned $98. At that rate, how much will she earn this weekend if she works 14 hours?

Answer 1

$114.3

Explanation:

Number of hours worked last week = 12hrs

Amount earned for her work hours = $98

The rate at which she earned = ?

Rate =
`(amount earned )/(total work hour)`

Rate =
`(98)/(12)` = $8.17/hr

Now;

Since the total hours she worked during the weekend = 14hrs

Amount earned = $8.17/hr x 14hrs = $114.3
