Question

6. Consider the two ads for an accounting clerk. If you worked 40 hours per week for 50 weeks, how much would each company pay per hour?

Answer 1

First one

$\frac{18500}{40\times50}=\frac{18500}{2000}=9.25$

Then, the first one pays $9.25 dollars per hour

The second one

$\frac{16500}{40\times50}=\frac{16500}{2000}=8.25$

Then, the second one pays $8.25 dollars per hour
