You get paid $8 an hour. You make $35 in tips. You make $167.00 in a week. How many hours did you work?

To figure out the hours worked, we first need the amount of hourly wages made:
Hourly Wages = Total Wages - Tips
Hourly Wages = $167 - $35
Hourly Wages = $132

Calculate Hours Worked
Hours Worked = Hourly Wages / Hourly Rate
Hourly Worked = $132 / $8
Hourly Worked = 16.5
