This question shows you how to determine the amount of money Mr. Leonard makes in 4 weeks. It takes his total salary, divides it by 52 (there are 52 weeks in a year), then multiplies it by 4 (you need 4 weeks worth of pay).
This amount is shown as $6769.24.
He must pay the agency 22% of this, so change 22% to 0.22 and multiply it by the amount he makes in 4 weeks.
0.22 x 6769.24 = $1489.23
Mr. Leonard must pay the agency $1489.23 after the first 4 weeks.
This amount is shown as $6769.24.
He must pay the agency 22% of this, so change 22% to 0.22 and multiply it by the amount he makes in 4 weeks.
0.22 x 6769.24 = $1489.23
Mr. Leonard must pay the agency $1489.23 after the first 4 weeks.
- 88 × 1,000 = 88,000
- 88,000 ÷ 52 = $1,692.31.
- 4*1,692.31 = $6,769.24.
- 6,769.24 × 0.22 ≈ $1,480
- Mr. Leonard must pay the agency $1,480.
This question is solved by proportions.
We have that:
- The job pays $88K = $88,000 per year.
- A year has 52 weeks.
- He must pays 22% of the salary of his first four weeks.
- To find how much he needs to pay, we first find his weekly salary, then find his salary for four weeks and then 22% of this, completing the spaces.
--------------
First space:
We multiply 88 and 1000, to find his yearly salary in dollars.
88 × 1,000 = 88,000
---------------
Second space:
Dividing by 52, we find his weekly salary.
88,000 ÷ 52 = $1,692.31.
---------------
Third space:
Multiplying his weekly salary by 4, we find his salary for four weeks.
4*1,692.31 = $6,769.24.
---------------
Fourth and fifth space:
Multiplying his salary of 4 weeks, $6,769.24, by 0.22, we find how much he has to pay the agency. So
0.22*6729.24 = $1,480.
6,769.24 × 0.22 ≈ 1,480
Mr. Leonard must pay the agency $1,480.
