Reasoning and answer: In a week, Cindy spends an average of 48 hours / week / 4 courses = 12 hours / week for 1 math course. In a month, 1 math course is 12 hours / week x 4 weeks / month = 48 hours. Therefore, she earns $25 / hour x 48 hours / week = $1200 a month for 1 math course.
The answer: 1200
