    Answer: He worked 40 hours that week.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given : The owner of an automotive shop devotes 90% of his workweek to supervising, sales and accounting tasks. In one week.

    Let x = Number of hours he work in a week.

    then, Hours for supervising, sales and accounting tasks = 90% of x

    As per given ,

    90\%\ of \ x= 36\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.90x=36\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{36}{0.9}=\dfrac{360}{9}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=40

    Hence, he worked 40 hours that week.
