Answer:
495.56 should be p[aid for 40 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
concept used
In ratio
a:b = c:d
__________________________________________
Given
IS PAID 473.88 FOR 38 1/4 HOURS OF WORK
38 1/4 hour = 38.25 hours
if we get ratio for payment per hour
we have
473.88 / 38.25 or 473.88 : 38.25
___________________________________
now we have to find payment for 40 hours
let that payment be x
thus, ratio for payment per hour in this case will be
x/40 or x:40
since
x:40 and 473.88 : 38.25 is representative of same program enhancement unit both ratio will be equal
thus
x:40 = 473.88 : 38.25
x/40 = 473.88 / 38.25
=> x = 40*(473.88 / 38.25 ) = 495.56
Thus, 495.56 should be p[aid for 40 hours.
