Jon makes $1,188 in 4 weeks


$8.25 x 36 = 297
287 x 4 = 1,188
So Jon makes $297 a week and he makes $1,188 in 4 weeks

Jon makes $1188 in four weeks.

This is a simple version of a problem where we didn't account for taxes or contributions that lower his paycheck. This is his gross pay. "Gross" means before taxes.
