Solution

  1. First, we need to find out how much Charlotte earns per hour. We do this by dividing her total earnings for the week by the number of hours she worked. So, 333.00÷18hours=333.00 ÷ 18 hours = 18.50 per hour.

  2. Next, we need to find out how many hours she would need to work to earn 425.50.Wedothisbydividingthetotalamountshewantstoearnbyherhourlywage.So,425.50. We do this by dividing the total amount she wants to earn by her hourly wage. So, 425.50 ÷ $18.50 per hour = approximately 23 hours.

Therefore, Charlotte would need to work approximately 23 hours to earn $425.50, if she continues to earn the same hourly wage.
