Javonie earned $340 over the summer and he charged $20 per dog in July.

The amount of money he earned over the summer is the sum of the money he earned in July and the sum of the money he earned in August

Total amount earned in the summer = amount earned in July + amount earned in August

$160 + $180 = $340

The amount he charged per dog in July can be determined by dividing the total amount earned in July by the total number of dogs he walked.

Amount charged per dog = amount earned in July / total dogs worked

$160 / 8 = $20
