Question

Assume you spend $275 for your course and you spend 10 weeks on your coursework. How much does it cost per hour to the nearest cent?

Answer 1

The course costs, approximately, $0.16 per hour.

Explanation:

1. Convert the 10 weeks to hours.

10 weeks * 7= 70 days

70 days * 24= 1680 hours

2. Calculate cost/hour.

Establish a rule of 3.

1680 hours -----> $275

1 hour -----> x

x= (1 hour * $275) / 1680 hours

x= 0.1636904762 ---> Round to the nearest cent.

x= 0.16 ---> Final result.

3. Conclude.

The course costs, approximately, $0.16 per hour.
