Melanie earns $97.50bin 6 hours. earl earns $296.00 in 20 hours. who earns a higher rate of pay per hour?

Melanie earns 16.25 dollars per hour and Earl earns 14.8 so Melanie is the one who earns a higher rate of pay per hour, to do this divide 97.50 by 6 hours for Melanie’s pay per hour and 296.00 by 20 for earls pay per hour you should get 16.25 per hour for Melanie and 14.80 per hour for earl (hope this helps )
