for a family of four the estimated monthly cost of living in Fort Worth Texas is 3,784 if there are two full-time working adults in the family what is the hour living wage of each in order to support their basic needs
To determine the hourly living wage for each adult, we need to consider the number of working hours in a month.
Let's assume an average of 40 working hours per week and approximately 4 weeks in a month.
Total working hours per month for two adults = 2 (adults) * 40 (hours/week) * 4 (weeks/month) = 320 hours
To calculate the hourly living wage for each adult, we divide the estimated monthly cost of living by the total working hours per month.
Hourly living wage for each adult = $3,784 (estimated monthly cost of living) / 320 (total working hours per month)
Hourly living wage for each adult ≈ $11.82 (rounded to the nearest cent)
Therefore, each full-time working adult would need to earn approximately $11.82 per hour to support their basic needs in Fort Worth, Texas.
