Question

Kristen babysits 38 hours a week for $6.80 per hour. She earns an additional $224.00 in tips . How much did she make in 1 week?

Answer 1

$502.40

Explanation:

Kristen works 38 hours for $6.80 per hour.

We multiply her pay and the hours she worked:

38 × 6.8 = 258.4

Thus, she makes $258.40/week

Now we add her tips, which would be the equation 258.4 + 224

258.4 + 224 = 502.4

So, she made $502.40 in 1 week
