Sam works 8 hours a day, 6 days a week, delivering flowers. And he earns $5.50 for delivering flowers per day, per hour. In 4 weeks, how much will he earn?
8 * 6 * 5.5 * 4 = ?
To calculate Sam's earnings, we need to find the total number of hours he works in 4 weeks and then multiply it by his hourly rate.
First, let's calculate the total number of hours he works in a week:
Sam works 8 hours a day.
He works 6 days a week.
So, in a week, he works 8 * 6 = 48 hours.
Now, let's calculate the total number of hours he works in 4 weeks:
Sam works 48 hours a week.
So, in 4 weeks, he would work 48 * 4 = 192 hours.
Finally, let's calculate his earnings:
Sam earns $5.50 per hour.
So, his total earnings would be 192 * $5.50 = $<<192*5.5=1056>>1056.
Therefore, Sam will earn $1056 in 4 weeks.
