Rico is offered a permanent position that pays $45,000 a year. the same week, rico is offered a full-time (8 hour days, 5 days a week) job that pays $20.50 an hour. based on the monthly income of each job, which would you recommend to rico and why?

I recommend the work that pays  $45,000 a year because the monthly income is greater than the other job

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The first work pays $45,000 a year

so

The monthly income is equal to

$45,000/12=$3,750 per month

The second work pays $20.50 an hour

Remember that

1 year= 52 weeks

so

In one year pays > (8)*(5)*(52)($20.50)=$42,640 a year

The monthly income is equal to

$42,640/12=$3,553.33 per month

I recommend the work that pays  $45,000 a year because the monthly income is greater than the other job
