What is the hourly wage of the recovery person in the scenario?

• A. $8/hour
• B. $12/hour
• C. $15/hour
• D. $10/hour

Answer: (D)

Hourly wage is found by dividing total earnings by hours worked. In the scenario, the totals given for the recovery person lead to a rate of ten dollars per hour. So the wage matches that rate across the work period. For example, a total pay of $100 for 10 hours or $120 for 12 hours both give $10/hour. Any other choice would require different totals or hours than those provided.
