He earned 32 for 4 hours, so you have 32/4.

Then you want to find the number of hours to make 80, so you have 80/h.

Set them to equal each other:

32/4 = 80/h

Now cross multiply:

(32 * h) / (4 *80)

Simplify:

32h = 320

Divide both sides by 32:

h = 320 / 32

h = 10

He will need to work 10 hours.
