Explanation: Since it tells you she earns $48 in 4 hours, you have to find how much she earns in 1 hour. So you do 48 divided by 4 (12) and that is how much she earns in 1 hour. Since the question is, how much does she earn in 20 hours, you multiply 12 x 20 and that equals 240 which means she earns $240 in 20 hours
So first you figure out what 25% of $40.00 is whitch would be $30.00. Then what i think you would do next is add 6% of the cost of the dress. 6% of $30.00 is $1.80. so $30.00 + $1.80 = $31.80 dollors for the dress.
