Given Situation: Theresa worked 9 hours on Monday and 7 hours on Wednesday.
=> First let’s add the total amount of hours Theresa rendered.
=> 9 + 7 = 16 hours in total
Her total pay was $116.00. What is her rate per hour?
=> Let’s solve for the unit rate:
=> 16 hours for 116 dollars.
Let’s find x dollars / hour
=> 116 dollars / 16 hours = 7.25 dollars / hour.
Thus, she is paid 7.25 dollars every hour she do her work

If you would like to know what is her rate per hour, you can calculate this using the following steps:

9 hours on Monday + 7 hours on Wednesday = 9 + 7 = 16 hours

$116.00 / 16 hours = 116.00 / 16 = $7.25

The correct result would be $7.25.
