His dad earns $800.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

His dad makes 4 times as much money as him each week. Each week their income adds up to 1.000 dollars.

We know that:

x= Franks income

4x= Dads income

y= total income

y= x + 4x

1,000= 5x

1,000/5=x

200=x

Frank earns $200.

His dad earns $800.
