Answer :

Answer:

  $14.17 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

You want Valerie's average pay to the nearest cent if she works 38 hours per week, for 52 weeks out of the year, receiving annual pay of $28,000.

Pay per Hour

In a year, Valerie works ...

  (38 hours/week) × (52 weeks/year) = 1976 hours/year

She is paid $28,000 for that number of hours, so her hourly pay is ...

  $28,000/(1976 hours) ≈ $14.17/hour

Valerie's average pay is about $14.17 per hour.
