Question

An employee earns $195 for 15 hours work. Assuming he is paid by the hour, how much will this employee earn in 8 hours

Answer 1

First, divide 195 by 15. This will get you 13. So, that means the employee gets paid $13.00 per hour. To find out how much money the employee will get for 8 hours, simply multiply 13 by 8. So, the employee will be paid $104.00 for 8 hours

Answer 2

Assuming that that's before taxes, they will make $104. For each hour of work they will make $13. (195/15 = 13) (13*8 = 104).
