To find the unit rate we will divide the amount of money earned by the amount of hours worked. Then we will check it. Lets do it:-

132 ÷ 16 = 8.25
1 hour = $8.25.

CHECK OUR WORK:-

8.25 × 16 = 132
We were RIGHT!!!

So, your answer would be $8.25.

Hope I helped ya!!
We need to set up a proportion.

132/16 = x/1

Cross multiply

132*1 = 132
16*x = 16x

16x = 132          Isolate the variable to solve for x.

16x/16 = 132/16
x= 132/16
x= 8.25

$8.25 is what she/he earns in one hour.
