Question

The maximum annual pay for a machine operator job working full-time in Fort
Worth, Texas, is $30,300. What is the equivalent hourly wage? Round to the
nearest hundredth. (1 point)

Answer 1

wrong

Answer 2

To find the equivalent hourly wage, divide the maximum annual pay by the number of hours in a year (assuming a full-time job works 40 hours per week for 52 weeks):
Hourly Wage = Maximum Annual Pay / Number of Hours in a Year

Number of Hours in a Year = 40 hours/week * 52 weeks/year = 2,080 hours/year

Hourly Wage = $30,300 / 2,080 = $14.56 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

Therefore, the equivalent hourly wage is $14.56.

Answer 3

Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's try again:

To find the equivalent hourly wage, divide the maximum annual pay by the number of hours worked in a year (assuming a full-time job works 40 hours per week for 52 weeks):
Hourly Wage = Maximum Annual Pay / Number of Hours in a Year

Number of Hours in a Year = 40 hours/week * 52 weeks/year = 2,080 hours/year

Hourly Wage = $30,300 / 2,080 = $14.57 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

Therefore, the equivalent hourly wage is $14.57.
