Step 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Money make per hour=}\frac{663.78}{168} \\ \\ \text{Money make per hour}=\text{ \$}3.951071429 \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 3
[tex]\begin{gathered} 32\text{hours}=\text{ \$}3.951071429\times32 \\ 32\text{ hours = \$126. 4}342857 \end{gathered}[/tex]The final answer is
