Question

You work 4 hours on Saturday and 8 hours on Sunday. You also receive a $50 bonus. You earn $164. How much did you earn per hour?

Answer 1

You earned 13.6 per hr

Answer 2

To find the hourly rate, we would first need to take the total earnings and subtract the bonus. $164 - $50 = 114 This gives us the total money earned for hourly work. Then we need to add the total hours worked: 4 + 8 = 12. Lastly, we need to take the total money earned and divide it by the total hours worked: 114 / 12 = 9.50 or $9.50 per hour. The equation could look like: 4h + 8h + $50 = $165
