Question

Leonard worked 4 on Monday, 1 on Tuesday, 1 on Wednesday, 8 on Thursday and 8 on Friday. His gross pay for all 5 days was $471.40. What was his hourly rate? Round answer to hundredths place and If the answer doesn't have a hundredths place then include a zero so answer does have a hundredths place

Answer 1

21.43 dollars per hour

Explanation:

In order to calculate the rate per hour, we must add the number of hours worked in total.

Then, the total value is divided by the sum of the working hours, just like this:

`\begin{gathered} t=4+1+1+8+8 \\ t=22 \\ \text{ therefore} \\ r=(471.40)/(22) \\ r=21.43 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the rate per hour is $21.43
