Assuming the two human workers work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, that comes out to $2,080 per week. To pay off the robot, you would need 12 weeks of labor savings, or 84 days.

658 Hours
Explanation:
All you do is divide.
$19 for every hour, it's 2 persons so, $38 for every hour.
SO,
25,000/38
= 657.894736842 which is about 658 so, = 658 Hours
