Translate both spend and have as passer:

Use dans for in when something is seen as happening in the future:

Use en for in when expressing the time something took or will take:

he did it in an hour

= il l’a fait en une heure

The commonest translation of for in the ‘how long’ sense is pendant:

I worked in the factory for a year

= j’ai travaillé à l’usine pendant un an

But use pour for for when the length of time is seen as being still to come:

we’re here for a month

= nous sommes là pour un mois

And use depuis for for when the action began in the past and is or was still going on:

she has been here for a week

= elle est ici depuis huit jours

she had been there for a year

= elle était là depuis un an

I haven’t seen her for years

= je ne l’ai pas vue depuis des années

How much an hour (etc)?

how much do you get an hour?

= combien gagnez-vous de l’heure?

I get $20

= je gagne 20 dollars de l’heure

to be paid $20 an hour

= être payé 20 dollars de l’heure

but note:

to be paid by the hour

= être payé à l’heure

how much do you earn a month?

= combien gagnez-vous par mois?

$3,000 a month

= 3000 dollars par mois

Forms in -ée: an/année, matin/matinée etc.

The -ée forms are often used to express a rather vague amount of time passing or spent in something, and so tend to give a subjective slant to what is being said, as in:

a long day/evening/year

= une longue journée/soirée/année

a whole day

= toute une journée or une journée entière

we spent a lovely day there

= nous y avons passé une journée merveilleuse

When an exact number is specified, the shorter forms are generally used, as in:

it lasted six days

= cela a duré six jours

two years’ military service

= deux ans de service militaire

However there is no strict rule that applies to all of these words. If in doubt, check in the dictionary.
