Answer 1

Answer:

The carpenter earned $176 for the week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the hours worked:  3.25 hr + 7 1/4 hr + 5 2/4 hr

                                            =        10 2/4 hr      + 5  2/4 hr

                                             =                     16 hr

Now multiply this result by $11/hr:

($11/hr)(16 hr) = $176
