Rachel earned \$34$34 in 44 hours at her job today. She wants to know how much she could earn (e)(e) tomorrow if she works 1010

kari74 [83]

Answer:

Rachel will earn $85 in 10 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rachel earned $34 in 4 hours at her job today.

Suppose, she will earn $x$ dollar in 10 hours tomorrow.

So, according to ratio of 'dollar' and 'hours', the equation will be.....

$\frac{34}{4}=\frac{x}{10}$

After cross multiplying, we will get.....

$4x= 34*10\\ \\ 4x= 340\\ \\ x=\frac{340}{4}=85$

Thus, Rachel will earn $85 in 10 hours.
