Answer 1

$324

Explanation:

So, First we have to establish what we are solving for, in this equation we are solving for how much money Katie made this week after working 40.5 hours at a salary of $8 per hour.

To find how much Katie made we have to multiply 40.5 and 8!

Let's make it easier by splitting 40.5 into 40 and 0.5

40 × 8 = 320

0.5 × 8 = 4

320 + 4 = 324

Katie made $324 this week!
