You are paid $78 $78 for 6 1 2 612 hours of work. what is your rate of pay?

Relevance Best   Something is wrong with the question. 

$78 / 612 hours ≈ $0.13 per hour (in other words, less than 13 *cents* per hour). 

To figure the hourly rate, take the total pay and divide by the hours. 

For example, if it was $78 for *6* hours, it would be: 
78 / 6 = $13 per hour. 

Or more likely, it was $78 for *6½* hours: 
78 / 6½ 
= 78 / 13/2 
= 78 x 2/13 
= 78/13 x 2 
= 6 x 2 
= $12 per hour
