Jen earned a total of $780.45 during the week at her job as a social media specialist. Her employer pays her $23.65 per hour. How many hours did Jen work during the week?

Answer 1

To find out how many hours Jen worked during the week, we can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Hours worked} = \frac{\text{Total earned}}{\text{Hourly wage}} \]

Here, Jen earned a total of $780.45 and her hourly wage is $23.65. Plugging in these values:

\[ \text{Hours worked} = \frac{780.45}{23.65} \]

Now we will perform the division:

\[ \text{Hours worked} \approx 33.00 \]

Thus, Jen worked approximately 33 hours during the week.
