Question

Helene, who drives a cab, is paid $250 per week. She averages $75 per day in tips. About how much does she earn per 5 day work week?

Answer 1

Helene earns a total of $625 per 5 day work week, which includes her $250 base salary and $375 in tips ($75 per day).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks us to calculate how much Helene earns in a 5 day work week, considering her weekly salary and average daily tips. Helene's weekly earnings are $250 from her salary. In addition, she earns $75 per day in tips over a 5 day work week. To calculate her total weekly earnings, we add her salary to her total tips for the week ($75 per day times 5 days).

The calculation for her total weekly earnings would be:

$250 (weekly salary) + ($75/day × 5 days) = $250 + $375 = $625.

Hence, Helene earns $625 per 5 day work week.

Answer 2

Answer: 625

Explanation:
250+(75*5)
250+375=625
