Respuesta :

1) Gathering the data

Last week

28 worked hours = $266

What is your hourly pay rate?

2) To find out that, let's set a proportion

Worked hours $

28------------------------ 266

1--------------------------- x

Let's use the fundamental property of a proportion that allows us to cross multiply the ratios of that proportion

So the hourly pay rate is approximately $11.08 per hour.
