Hi, Analynn. In order to find how much he will earn in 5 days, we must find out how much he works in 1 day. 1 day is 1 3/4. 3/4 converts to .75, so lets say 1.75. Next, you would multiply that number by how much he makes. Do this calculation for me: 5 times 1.75. When you get that answer, multiply it by 5, because you wanted 5 days. I'll be happy to check your answer

$61.25 for 5 days
8.75
