To solve this, we need to know how much Ron earned per hour, based on him earning $27.30 for 6.5 hours worked. To do this, divide 27.30 by 6.5. This equals 4.2, so Ron earned $4.20 per hour. To find out how much he would earn working 20 hours, just multiply 4.20 by 20. This equals 84. So, Ron earned $84 when he worked 20 hours
