Question

Alonzo made $209 for 11 hours of work.

At the same rate, how much would he make for 18 hours of work?

Answer 1

$342

Explanation:

First we need to find the hourly rate. To find hourly rate divide the amount earned by 11.

209 ÷ 11 = $ 19

Alonzo earns $ 19 per hour. To find money earned in 18 hours, we need to multiply.

18*19 = $342

Answer 2

$342

Explanation:

Hello :)
In order to find how many he would make with 18 hours of work, we need an hourly rate in his job to see how much he makes every hour, then multiply it by 18 since that would be the amount of money he gets for 18 hours.

To start off, 209/11=19 dollars an hour. That's a nice amount.
Since he earns 19 dollars an hour, we will multiply this by 18 to see how many dollars he will earn in that alotted time.

19*18=342

Therefore, Alonzo will earn 342 dollars over a span of 18 hours.
