Question

If a person earns $8.74 per hour, estimate how much the person would earn per year. Assume a person works 40 hours per week and 50 weeks per year.

Answer 1

Answer:

$17,480 per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount earned per hour = $8.74

If a person works for 40 hours every week for 50 weeks in a year, number of hours worked in a year = $40hrs*50weeks = 2000 hrs$

Estimated amount earned per year by the person = $2000hrs * 8.74 dollars$

= $17,480 per year.
