    you would divide 56 by 8 to get 7. which is your pay rate. Then you would divide 36 by 4 to get 9. which is your friends pay rate.

    Answer:

    Your pay rate is:  

    $
    7  per hour

    Your friend’s pay rate is  :

    $
    9  per hour

    Explanation:

    So if it takes you  8  hours to make  $
    56
    , you can just divide the total money earned by the time.  So it would be  56
    ÷
    8  which is  7
    .

    And if takes your friend  4  hours to make  $
    36
    , you can divide like we just did
    . So it would be  36
    ÷
    4  which is  9
    .

    So you make  $
    7  per hour and your friend makes  $
    9 per hour.
