Answer:

Explanation:

I think it is helpful to set this up as a proportion as it is the easiest way in my opinion.

1st step: 396/18 and x/11

This is the way you set up the proportion.

2nd Step: You would have to multiply 396 and 11 then divide the value by 18.

396x11 = 4,356

4,356/18 = 242

x=242 Dollars

Answer: 242 dollars

Therefore, Alan would make 242$ while working at the same rate for 11 hours.
