Sarah works as a waitress at El Fenix. She worked 4 days for a total 30

hours this week and made a total of $125 in tips.lf she made regular minimum wage ($7.25) and no tips, how much
Would she have made?

Answer 1

Sarah would have earned $217.50 for her 30 hours of work at the minimum wage rate of $7.25 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Sarah made regular minimum wage without tips, we would calculate her earnings by multiplying her hourly wage by the number of hours worked. Sarah worked a total of 30 hours and the minimum wage is $7.25 per hour.

Total earnings = Hourly wage × Total hours worked

Total earnings = $7.25 × 30 hours

Total earnings = $217.50

Therefore, without tips, Sarah would have made $217.50 for 30 hours of work at the minimum wage rate.
