A cashier worked an 8 hour day, and earned $58.00. The double number line shows the amount she earned for working different numbers of hours. How much money does the cashier make in one hour?

If the cashier worked for 8 hours, she would earn $58.

I would add that the question to be answered is "how much money does the cashier make in one hour?" If we have the information above, we should be dividing 58 by 8 to show how the total of $58 was accumulated by each hour. This gives us $7.25 per hour.11/15/20
