Question

Mr. Marlon pays minimum wage to the cashiers in his store. If minimum wage is $7.25 per hour, how much does a cashier make who works 40 hours per week?

Answer 1

$7.25*40=$290

The cashier will make $290 per week if they work 40 hours each week.

Answer 2

Answer: 290 dollars

======================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

We multiply the hourly wage by the number of hours worked to get the total amount earned.

(7.25)*(40) = 290

This is before taxes are applied. So we consider it the gross earnings (as opposed to the net earnings).
