Answer: $14.40
10% of $18 = $1.80 (just divide it by 10)
$1.80 x 2 = $3.60
20% of $18 = $3.60
since it’s a discount, you subtract from the original price so:
$18 - $3.60 = $14.40
<span>You are given
John Davis’ rate which is $9.75 an hour. It is said that he works for four
hours on Monday, six hours on Tuesday, five hours on Wednesday, five hours on
Thursday, and seven hours on Friday. You are asked to find the gross pay of John
Davis. All you need to do is to multiply the rate to the hour of work.</span>
<span>
Monday: $9.75(4h)
= $39</span>
Tuesday:
$9.75(6h) = $58.5
Wednesday:
$9.75(5h) = $48.75
Thursday:
$9.75(5h) = $48.75
Friday:
$9.75(7h) = $68.25
<span>
To get the
