Question

Connor earns $23 every 1.5 hours. How many dollars would he earn after working 3 hours and 6 hours

Answer 1

By working 3 HOURS = $46.00 
By working 6 HOURS = $92.00

When you multiply 1.5 two times, making it 1.5 × 2, you would get 3. So you could just multiply 23 two times to get the answer for the amount of money you get in three hours, because what you do to one number, you do the same to the other number (speaking of ratios and fractions.)

And what I did, was divide the amount is 3 hours, which is 46, by 3, to find how much you get in 1 hour. It is a repeated decimal. And then I multiplied that by 6 to find how many he would get in 6 hours, and I got 92. So in 3 HOURS = $46.00, and in 6 HOURS = $92.00

Answer 2

92 for 6 hrs, and 46 for every 3.
