Ethan earned $188.40 at his job when he worked for 12 hours. How much money did he earn each hour?

Answer 1

To find out how much Ethan earned per hour, you can divide his total earnings by the number of hours he worked.

Ethan's total earnings: $188.40
Total hours worked: 12 hours

Now, calculate the earnings per hour:

\[ \text{Earnings per hour} = \frac{\text{Total earnings}}{\text{Total hours worked}} = \frac{188.40}{12} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \text{Earnings per hour} = 15.70 \]

Therefore, Ethan earned $15.70 per hour.
