Question

Michael earns $9 per hour. He works 28 hours each week. How much does he earn in 6 weeks?

Answer 1

Answer:

$1, 512

This is how:

1) Michael works 28 hours in one week. So how many hours does he work in 6 weeks?

So you need to calculate : 28 × 6 = 168

SO THIS IS THE TOTAL NUMBER OF HOURS FOR 6 WEEKS.

2) because Michael gets paid $9 PER HOUR :

You will need to multiply the amount of money he receives with the total number of hours he works.

168 × 9 = $ 1, 512

He earns $1,512 in 6 weeks
