Question

John earns $7.50 an hour. How many hours will John have to work to earn $600?

Answer 1

Divide John's goal amount by his hourly rate to find the answer.

$600 ÷ $7.50/hour = 80 hours.

So, John will have to work a total of 80 hours in order to earn $600.

Answer 2

80

Explanation:

If you divide 600 with 7.50 you will get 80.

That is simple!

Find the GCD (or HCF) of numerator and denominator

GCD of 600 and 750 is 150

Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD

600 ÷ 150

750 ÷ 150

Reduced fraction:

4

5

Therefore, 600/750 simplified to lowest terms is 4/5.
