Answer:she will earn $200 in 5 weeks

Explanation:

Susan takes care of a child for 2 hours after school each weekday and 6 hours on Saturday. There are 5 school days in a week. Total number of hours that she spends in taking care of the child during the weekdays would be 5×2 = 10 hours.

Total hours for the week would be

10 + 6 = 16 hours

Total amount of hours in 5 weeks would be

5 × 16 = 80

If she earns 2.50 per hour, it means that in 80 hours, she would earn

2.5 × 80 = $200
