Question

Mai made $95 for 5 hours of work.

At the same rate, how many hours would she have to work to make $133?

Answer 1

To find the number of hours Mai would have to work at the same rate to make $133, we need to divide $133 by Mai's hourly rate, which is $95/5 hours or $19/hour:


$133 / $19 = number of hours
number of hours * $19 = $133
number of hours = $133 / $19

Solving for number of hours we get:


number of hours = 7.00 hours

So Mai would need to work 7.00 hours at the same rate to make $133.
