Question

An electrician worked 28 hours a week for half a year. If his hourly wage was $25, how much did he earn during this time period?

Answer 1

divide 365 by 2 divide that by 7 then multiply  28 and 25 then multiply your two anwsers18250

Answer 2

So, there are 52 weeks in a year, so divide that in half to get 26 total weeks that he worked. Then, multiply 26 by 28 to get the total amount of hours he worked in his time of working, which is 728 hours. Then, since his hourly wage was $25, multiply 728 by $25 to get a total of $18,200.
