Question

One week, Brooklyn earned $179.30 at her job when she worked for 11 hours. If she is paid the same hourly wage, how many hours would she have to work the next week to earn $244.50?

Answer 1

Answer:

15 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

179.30 / 11 = $16.3 an hour

244.5 / 16.3 = 15 hours

Answer 2

Answer:

Brooklyn would get paid 16.30 hourly. So she will have to work 15 hours the next week to earn 244.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 179.30 by 11 and you would get 16.30 which is her hourly wage. Then you divide 244.50 by 16.30 to see how many hours she would have to work to earn 244.50.
