Well we know that she made $64.38 from 8:00am to 4:15pm
and she took a 1 hour lunch break so all we would have to do is remove that hours because she doesn't earn anything in that hour
so from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm is 8 hours however with the lunch break that she earns no money is -1 hour so she would work for 7 hours for $64.38 now all we have to do is divide to find the rate.
64.38/7=9.197 so she would make about $9.20 an hour 

Answer:

THE ACTUAL ANSWER IS $8.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is 8:00 Am to 4:FIFTEEN, NOT 4:00 PM, there should be 8.25 or 8 1/4 of a difference because of the "15". Then you subtract the one hour that she didn't get paid and you get 7.25. Divide this by the amount she got paid that day to get the amount she gets paid per hour. 64.38/7.25
