Question

One week, Claire earned $272.00 at her job when she worked for 17 hours. If she is paid the same hourly wage, how many hours would she have to work the next week to earn $448.00?

Answer 1

Answer:

34 represents how many hours she worked. and 544 represents how much she got paid.

Step-by-step explanation:

since you know that every 17 hours she gets paid $272 you would do 272 times 2 which is 544. then do 17 times 2 which is 34. 34 represents how many hours she worked. and 544 represents how much she got paid.

Answer 2

Answer: 448 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

272 divided by 17 = hourly wage

hourly wage= 16$

448 divided by 16 = 28 weeks

28 x 16= 448 hours
