first find out how long he is working :9 weeks

then find out how many hours that is: 4 nine hour days a week, that is 36 days and 324 hours

now find out how much money per hour: 324 x 6.65 =2154.6
so he made $2154.60 that summer

Multiply $6.65 times 9 times 4 times 9

6.65 x 9 = 59.85 = 1 week of work
59.85 x 9 = 538.65 =9 weeks of work

The amount Julian makes over summer vacation = $538.65

he gets $6.65/hour

works 36 hours per week (4 days X 9 hours per day)

works 9 weeks

9 weeks X 36 hours per week = 324 hours

324 hours X $6.65 = $2154.60

6.65 x 4 x 9 x 9

(6.65 per hour x 4 days a week, x 9 hours a day x 9 weeks)

9 hours x 4 = 36 hrs. per week x 9 weeks = 324 hours. 324 x $6.65 = $2,154.60.

if Juan is a legal worker, you have to deduct taxes too.
If he's illegal, then your answer is easier.
