Question

Josie is looking for a new part time job as a painter. She responds to a classified ad for a position that pays 38.2K. What would her weekly salary be to the nearest cent if she gets this job? Show work

Answer 1

Fairly simple if it’s 38.2k per year
You would just divide by how many weeks there are in a year so 52
Then round
38.2k/52
734.615385
Answer:735

Answer 2

73461.53 Cents

Explanation:

There are 52 weeks/yr

1k = 100,000 cents

Salary/week:

`(38.2)/(52) * 100000`

= 0.7346153 x 100000

Salary/Week = 73461.53 Cents
