Question

Alicia earns $9.00 per hour working T a part-time job. She wants to earn more than $180 this week. How many hours does Alicia have to work?

Answer 1

Alica would have to work for 20 days, I know this because I divided 9 by 180 to get 90. 9 goes into 1 zero times so you write a zero above it and carry down the 8, 9 goes in 18 two times so it should now say 09 above and finally anything going into 0 is 0 giving you 090

Answer 2

20 hours times $9 is $180. She would have to work over 20 hours to earn more than $180.

I would say 21 hours.
