A worker in a factory earns $10 an hour. The worker works 10 hours a day for 10 days straight before a vacation. How much money did the worker earn before going on vacation
A $10^1
B $ 10^3
C $ 10^2
D $ 3^10
The worker earns $10 per hour and works 10 hours a day for 10 days straight before a vacation. To find the total amount earned, we can multiply the hourly wage by the number of hours worked each day, and then multiply that by the number of days worked before vacation.
$10/hour * 10 hours/day = $100/day
$100/day * 10 days = $1000.
Therefore, the worker earned $1000 before going on vacation.
The correct answer is B) $10^3.
