12 dollars per hour. because 12*6=72 and 12/2 is 6 so 72+6= 78

6.5h = 78 is our equation
Divide both sides by 6.5 to solve for how much you paid per hour.
6.5h / 6.5 = h
78 / 6.5 = 12
H = 12

Your answer is:

Your rate of pay is $12 per hour.

I hope this helps!

Now that you have converted a terminating decimal number into a fraction, try converting a repeating decimal number into a fract

Tom [10]

The first step is to assign the decimal number to a variable.

For the repeating fraction 0.111_1, this would look like
.. x = 0.111_1 . . . . . . . . . . where we use an underscore to identify the following digit(s) as repeating

The next step is to multiply that value by 10 to a power equal to the number of repeating digits. If there is one repeating digit (as here), then you want (10^1)x = 10x.
.. 10x = 1.111_1

The third step is to subtract x from this.
.. 10x -x = 1.111_1 -0.111_1 = 1
.. 9x = 1

And the final step is to divide by the coefficient of x.
.. x = 1/9 . . . . . . this is the value of the repeating decimal fraction.

Here's one that's a little more complicated. It is done the same way.
.. x = 3.254545_45
.. 100x = 325.454545_45
.. 100x -x = 99x = 322.2
.. x = 322.2/99 = 3222/990 = 179/55
