For a family of 4, the estimated monthly cost of living in Fort Worth, Texas is $3,784. If there are 2 full - time working adults in the family, what is the average hourly living wage of each in order to support their basic needs? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
To find the average hourly living wage for each adult, we first need to calculate the total number of hours worked by both adults in a month.
Assuming a standard 40-hour workweek, each adult works 40 hours * 4 weeks = 160 hours per month.
So, both adults together work 160 hours * 2 = 320 hours per month.
Now, to calculate the average hourly living wage, we divide the estimated monthly cost of living by the total number of hours worked by both adults.
Average hourly living wage = $3,784 / 320 hours = $11.83
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the average hourly living wage is $11.83.
