Question

Mark makes $60 for every six hour shift he works. How much will he make if he works an eight hour shift

Answer 1

Answer:

Mark will make $80 if he works an eight-hour shift.

Step-by-step explanation:

For every six hour shift he works, Mark makes $60

This implies that for every hour, he makes $10 ($60/6)

Therefore, for working an eight-hour shift, Mark will make $80 ($10 * 8) or ($60/6 * 8).

We can conclude that Mark's employer pays him $10 per hour.

This hourly rate can be used to work out how much Mark will earn if he works for a month or a year, as the case may be.
