Question

_2. You have a part-time job 4 days per week, 5 hours per day. How many hours will you work in two weeks?

A) 10
B) 20
C) 40
D) 80

Answer 1

C) 40

Explanation:

For every one day your work is 5 hours.

1 day = 5 hours

Set up a proportion so it would be:

`(1 day)/(5 hours) = (4 days)/(x hours)`

4 days x 5 hours = 20 hours/week

So now you know you know you work 20 hours/week, then multiply by 2 since they're asking how many hours will you work in two weeks:

20 hours x 2 weeks = 40 hours in two weeks
