Question

Delila earns $108.75 for working 15 hours as a holiday helper wrapping gifts. at this rate ,how much money will she earn if she works 18 hours the next week? explain

Answer 1

First you want to see how much she makes per hour so you will divide

$108.75 / 15 = $7.25

Delila she makes $7.25 every hour.

So if next week she works 3 more hours than she did the previous you will just multiply $7.25 three times which is $21.75.

Then just add $108.75 + $21.75 = $130.50.

If Delila works 18 hours she will earn $130.50.

Hope this Helps!!

Answer 2

In 1 hour she earns $7.25
18 hours she earns $130.5
18 times 17.25 it’s $130.5
