What is the clerk's error?
A payroll clerk notes that an employee's paycheck for
working 25 hours is $659.20. The clerk then
calculates the employee's hourly rate to be $51.35.
The clerk's calculations are:
Step 1: 659:20 =
253
O The clerk is correct. There is no error.
The proportion shown in step 1 is incorrect
In step 2, the calculated value of x is incorrect.
Step 4 should contain the average of the numbers
instead of the sum.
The calculations show division and then addition
instead of only division.
Step 2: x = 25.6
Step 3: 25 -
= 25.75
Step 4: 25.60 +25.75 = 51.35
