yeah not clear right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
maybe you are supposed to say there are 52 weeks in a year, so she works the other 50
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then her total pay is \(50\times 5\times 6\times 6.50\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
fifty weeks, five days a week, six hours a day, 6.50 per hour
OpenStudy (anonymous):
my teacher got 1755 but i got 35.10
