Answer: $146.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question, we need to first calculate the number of hours between 7 AM to 2 P.M which is 7 hours but we are told that there is a 30 minutes break. Therefore, he works for 6 hours 30 minutes which is 6 1/2 hours.

She's paid $4.50 pee hour, therefore the amount paid per day will be:

= 6 1/2 × $4.50

= 6.50 × $4.50

= $29.25

The amount that she'll make in 5 days will be:

= $29.25 × 5

= $146.25
