Answer 2

Answer:

$180.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Pay for 7.5 hours is $45.

To find: Pay for working 30 hours.

Solution: It is given that pay for 7.5 hours is $45. In order to find the pay for  hours we first need to find the pay for 1 hour, then we are able to find the pay for 30 hours as well.

Now, pay for 7.5 hours$=45$

pay for 1 hour $=\frac{45}{7.5}=6$

So, for 1 hour the pay is $6.

Now, to find the pay for 30 hours, we need to multiply the pay per hour by 30.

Therefore, pay for 30 hours $=30\times6=180$

Hence, pay for working 30 hours is $180.
