Answer: 21.87

Step-by-step explanation:

First job = 3 pennies

Second job = 9 pennies 

Third job = 27 pennies 

Do you see the pattern? The pennies are being multiplied by 3 every job or tripling.

Fourth job = 81 pennies

Fifth job = 243 pennies

Sixth job = 729 pennies

Seventh job = 2,187

So the answer would be that after the seventh shoveling job you'd receive 21.87 pennies.
