To find out who earns more per hour, we need to calculate the earnings per hour for both Piper and Carson.
For Carson:
5 hours = $121
1 hour = $121 / 5 = $24.20
For Piper:
5 hours = $100
1 hour = $100 / 5 = $20.00
Carson earns $24.20 per hour, while Piper earns $20.00 per hour. Carson earns $24.20 - $20.00 = $4.20 more per hour than Piper.
Therefore, Carson earns more per hour by $4.20.
