To find out how much Scott would make for a different number of hours of work at the same rate, we first need to determine his hourly wage.
Scott made $187 for 11 hours of work. We can calculate his hourly wage by dividing the total earnings by the number of hours worked:
\[
\text{Hourly Wage} = \frac{\text{Total Earnings}}{\text{Total Hours}} = \frac{187}{11}
\]
Calculating that:
\[
\text{Hourly Wage} = 17
\]
So Scott earns $17 per hour.
Now, to calculate how much he would make for a certain number of hours, we multiply the hourly wage by the number of hours.
For example, if you want to find out how much he would make for \( x \) hours of work, the formula would be:
\[
\text{Earnings} = \text{Hourly Wage} \times \text{Hours Worked} = 17 \times x
\]
Please specify how many hours you want to calculate the earnings for, and I can give you the exact figure.
