Guess? It’s called math. You want to know monthly? Divide by 12. You’re mad that you have to do math? It’s a standardized number.
For yearly to hourly divide by 2 and lop off 3 zeros. $35/hour = $70,000/year (approximately)
I agree. And the reason why that math mostly works out is because there are roughly 2000 working hours a year. So you’re just dividing salary by 2000.
