Given:

Amount Sue receives per hour = $7 per hour

Amount she earned last week = $259

Let's find how many hours she worked last week.

To find the number of hours Sue worked last week, apply the formula:


\text{Number of hours = }\frac{Amount\text{ earned}}{Hourly\text{ pay}}

Substitute values into the formula:


\text{Number of hours = }(259)/(7)=37

Therefore, Sue worked for 37 hours

ANSWER:

37 hours
