Question

Karen made $85 for 5 hours of work. At the same rate, how much would she make for 8 hours

Answer 1

The correct answer would be $136

Explanation:

If Karen made $85 in 5 hours and you want to figure out how much she would make in 8 hours, then you would first need to know how much she makes in 1 hour. Do to that, you would divide from 85 by 5, which would then give you 17. So that tells you how much Karen makes in 1 hour, now to find out how much she makes in 8 hours, all you have to do is multiply 17 and 8. Therefore, the answer to your question is Karen would make $136 in 8 hours.
