One week, Brooklyn earned $179.30 at her job when she worked for 11 hours. If she is paid the same hourly wage, how many hours would she have to work the next week to earn $244.50?

15 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

By dividing $179.30 by the 11 hours she worked, we know that she makes $16.30 per hour. By using that same wage, we can take her goal earnings of $244.50 and divide it by her wage.

$244.50/$16.30 = 15 hours.

Hope this helps!
