A company pays their employees $20 per hour. Using fractional notation, write a proportion that represents how long an employee must work to make $80. Use x
to represent the unknown number of hours.(1 point
$\frac{x}{1}$ = $\frac{80}{20}$
In fractional notation, the proportion can be written as:
$$\frac{20}{1} = \frac{80}{x}$$
Where $20$ represents the amount earned per hour, $1$ represents the number of hours worked in the numerator, $80$ represents the desired amount to earn, and $x$ represents the unknown number of hours in the denominator.
