Final answer:

Kai earns $25.64 per hour, working 12 hours a day for 7 days a week. Kai's weekly earnings are $2,153.76, and over 4 weeks, he makes a total of $8,615.04. The options given do not match this calculation, indicating a possible error in the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate how much Kai makes in 4 weeks, you will need to multiply his hourly wage by the number of hours he works each week and then multiply that by the number of weeks. Kai works 12-hour shifts, 7 days a week, and earns $25.64 per hour.

First, calculate weekly earnings:

  • 12 hours/day × 7 days/week = 84 hours/week
  • 84 hours/week × $25.64/hour = $2,153.76/week

Then, calculate 4-week earnings:

  • $2,153.76/week × 4 weeks = $8,615.04

Therefore, Kai makes $8,615.04 in 4 weeks, which is not one of the listed options (A, B, C, D). This suggests a potential error in the options provided or the details of the question.
