Piecework

 In this lesson we're going to learn about piecework. Piecework is similar to the commission we learned previously. The meaning of piecework is payment for the amount of the work completed, instead of number of hours worked.

 For example "A worker gets 55 cents for making a ring. Find the worker's weekly wage if makes 2134 rings."

  $1 = 100c
i.e = 55c = 0.55

0.55 x 2134
= $1173.7
