Question

Shawn works 40 hours a week as a store manager. If he made 27040 last year how much was he paid per hour

Answer 1

First we find out how many weeks are in 1 year:
1 year = 52.1429 weeks

Then we find out how many hours he worked in a year  by multiplying the number of hours he worked by the number of weeks there are in a year:
40 hrs/week x 52.1429 hrs/year = 2,085.716 hrs

Finally we divide:
27,040 dollars/year by 2,085.716 hrs

Afterwards we get 12.964372906, or to make it simpler we would round and get 12.96 dollars/hour

So your answer is $12.96 per hour.
