Question

Mia makes $15.50 per hour. For the Memorial holiday she worked 6 hours and 30 minutes on Friday. On Saturday, she worked for 1 hour and 10 minutes less than she did on Friday and on Monday she worked 4 hours and 10 minutes. How much money did Mia make for the Memorial holiday?

Answer 1

$248.00

Explanation:

Hours worked on Friday: 6 hr and 30 min = 6.5 hr

Money earned on Friday: $15.5/hr x 6.5 hr = $100.75

Hours worked on Saturday: 6.5 hr - 1.167 hr = 5.33 *10 min = 10/60 = 0.1667 hr

Money earned on Saturday: $15.50 x 5.33 hr = $82.67

Hours worked on Monday: 4.167 hr

Money earned on Monday: $15.50/hr x 4.167 hr = $64.58

Total money made: 100.75 + 82.67 + 64.58 = $248.00
