Question

if you get paid $0.89 for every belt and make 312 belts, how much will you be paid?
○ $288.78
○ $277.68
○ $276.88
○ $270.86

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the pay rate and number of belts

Pay per belt = \$0.89, Number of belts = 312.

Step2: Calculate total pay

Total pay = Pay per belt × Number of belts = \( 0.89 \times 312 \)
Calculate \( 0.89 \times 312 \):
First, \( 0.89 \times 300 = 267 \)
Then, \( 0.89 \times 12 = 10.68 \)
Add them together: \( 267 + 10.68 = 277.68 \)

Answer:

\$277.68
