Answer 1

$\textbf {Hey there, here is the solution.}$

.............................................................................................

Find total number of hours he worked in a week:

1 hour = $8.40

26 hours = 8.4 x 26 = $218.40

Find the number of hours he work in a year:

1 week = $218.40

1 year = 218.40 x 48 = $10,483.20

He earned $10,483.20 , which is more than $10,000

⇒ He has to pay tax
