Question

Carmen made $209 for 11 hours of work.

At the same rate, how much would she make for 8 hours of work?

Answer 1

Answer: $152

Explanation:

Divide 209 by 11 to find how much money she gets for 1 hour of work ($19) then multiply that value by 8.

Answer 2

Explanation:

First find the hourly rate Carmen makes. You can find it by dividing the amount she made by the number of hours she worked

209 / 11 = 19

Now multiply that rate by the amount of hours you want to figure out.

19 * 8 = 152
