Question

One week, Ashley earned $404.80 at her job when she worked for 22 hours. If she is paid the same hourly wage, how many hours would she have to work the next week to earn $368.00?

Answer 1

Answer:
20 hours

Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, since her hourly rate remains the same, we can set up a proportion to find the amount of hours she worked to make $368.00. The following is how to find the amount of time with proportions:

368.00/404.80 = x / 22
(22 * 368) / 404.80 = x
20 = x

Hence, she would need to work 20 hours to make $368.00.

Cheers.
