Question

Jim earns $41.25 in 5 hours. Susan earns $30.00 in 4 hours. Pierre's hourly rate is less than Jim's but more than Susan's. What is his hourly rate?

Answer 1

You have to divide 41.25 by 5, which is 8.25, then you divide 30 by 4 to get 7.5, so Pierre's hourly rate is less than $8.25 but more than $7.50
