Question

Every month Pablo earns $40 for walking his neighbors dog after school how much does he earn from his job in one year?

Answer 1

We know that Pablo earns $40 every month.

Then, to calculate how much he makes in a year, we use the fact that a year has 12 months.

Then, we can write:

`40\frac{\$}{\text{month}}\cdot12\text{ }(months)/(year)=480\frac{\$}{\text{year}}`

Answer: he earns $480 per year.
