Question

Jane made $143 for 11 hours of work. At the same rate, how many hours would she have to work to make $169 ?

Answer 1

13 Hours

Explanation:

$143 ÷ 11hrs = $13/hr that Jane is paid, so to find how many hours she will need to work to make $169

$169 ÷ $13 = 13 hours

Answer 2

13

First, we divide to figure out how much Jane makes an hour

143 ÷ 11 = 13

Second, we multiply multiply by 13 until we get 169

13 × 13 = 169

So Jane will make 169 dollars in 13 hours
