Answer:

$265.63 or ($265.625)

Explanation:

So we wanna find out the total money bob would make :P

First we wanna see how much bob makes in a day

Bob works 8.5 hours a day and get 6.25 every hour:

With this info we can make the expression: 8.5 * 6.25 which equals 53.125

Then we wanna find out how much he makes in a 5 day week so:

We can make the equation 53.125 * 5 which equals 265.625

We can round 265.625 to 265.63
