To solve the problem, we first determine Alan's hourly rate and then calculate how much he would earn for 5 hours of work.

1. Alan works for 6 hours and is paid £330. Therefore, his hourly rate is:
\[
\text{Hourly rate} = \frac{330}{6} = £55 \text{ per hour.}
\]

2. If he works for 5 hours, the total pay would be:
\[
\text{Total pay for 5 hours} = 55 \times 5 = £275.
\]

Thus, Alan would make £275 if he worked for 5 hours.
