To find out how much you will make in 8 hours, you can use a proportion calculation.
Using the given information, we can set up a proportion:
42.50 (amount made in 5 hours) / 5 (number of hours) = x (amount made in 8 hours) / 8 (number of hours)
Cross-multiplying, we get:
42.50 * 8 = 5x
340 = 5x
Dividing both sides by 5, we find:
x = 340 / 5
x = 68
Therefore, you will make $68.00 in 8 hours.
The correct option is:
$68.00
