George works for $20 an hour. Each day he works 7 hours. Each week he works 5 days. After 18 weeks, about how much will George have earned?
18week * 5day/week * 7hr/day * $20/hr = $12,600
Thats not the answer
dude
Yes, $12,600 IS the answer
$20/hr * 7 hrs/day = $140 a day
$140/day * 5 days/week = 700
$700/week * 18 weeks = $12,600
To calculate how much George will have earned after 18 weeks, we need to multiply his hourly rate by the number of hours he works each day, then multiply that by the number of days he works each week, and finally multiply that by the number of weeks.
First, let's calculate George's daily earnings. He works 7 hours a day, so his daily earnings can be found by multiplying his hourly rate of $20 by 7:
Daily earnings = $20/hour * 7 hours = $140
Next, let's calculate George's weekly earnings. He works 5 days a week, so his weekly earnings can be found by multiplying his daily earnings of $140 by 5:
Weekly earnings = $140/day * 5 days/week = $700
Finally, to determine George's total earnings after 18 weeks, we multiply his weekly earnings by the number of weeks:
Total earnings = $700/week * 18 weeks = $12,600
Therefore, after 18 weeks, George will have earned about $12,600.
