Answer 1

$133.20

Explanation:

Since the amount of hours she worked isn't a whole number, we can first separate 18 and 1/2 and work the problem out one at a time.

1. Multiply 7.20 by 18 to get 129.60

2. Multiply 0.50 by 7.20 to get 3.60.

3. Add 129.60 and 3.60 together to get the answer, 133.20.
