Question

Omar makes 8 dollars for each hour of work. write an equation to represent his total pay p after working h hours.

Answer 1

(8 p / h) *  "x" h = p (in dollars).
_________________________________

in which:  "h" = hours ; 
                "p" = pay (in units of dollars); 
                "x" = number of hours.
_________________________________
In the equation, on the left hand side, the unit symbol "h" would "cancel out" to "1" ; 
             and we would have:
_________________________________
8 p * x = _[total "p"]__
