Answer 1

9800 is final answer.

Explanation:

Lets find out how much he made each day!

20 x 8.75= 175

Now there are 7 days a week so...

175 x 7 = 1225

He works for 8 weeks:

1225 x 8 = 9800

Answer 2

1 hour 8.75

1 week 20 x 8.75 = $175

8 weeks 175 x 8 = $1,400

he earned 1,400 dollars in 8 weeks
