Travis will be paid 180 dollars for his work.
To find out how much Travis was paid for the painting job, we need to multiply the number of hours he worked by his hourly rate.
Travis painted for 6 2/3 hours, which can also be represented as 6 + 2/3 hours.
First, let's convert the mixed fraction 6 2/3 into an improper fraction:
6 + 2/3 = (6 * 3 + 2) / 3 = 20/3
Now, we can multiply the number of hours (20/3) by Travis' hourly rate ($27) to find out how much he was paid:
Payment = (20/3) * $27
To simplify the calculation, we can multiply the whole numbers separately from the fractions:
Payment = (20 * $27) / 3
We can further simplify 20 * $27 to get the final payment amount:
Payment = $540 / 3
Payment = $180
Therefore, Travis was paid $180 for doing this painting job.
