If julianne earned $296 working at the store last week. She earned $ 8 per hour. How many hour did she work
296 / 8 = ______ hours
To find out how many hours Julianne worked, we need to divide the total amount she earned by her hourly wage.
Let's set up the equation:
Total earnings = Hourly wage * Number of hours worked
In this case, the total earnings are $296, and the hourly wage is $8. We need to find the number of hours worked, so we'll denote it as "x" (unknown).
$296 = $8 * x
To solve for x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.
Dividing both sides of the equation by $8, we have:
$296 / $8 = x
Calculating this, we find:
37 = x
Therefore, Julianne worked for 37 hours at the store last week.
