Question 953209: nathi ,paul and tim worked at mrs setati's garden.nathi worked for 5 hours,paul worked for 4 hours and tim worked for 3 hours.mrs setati gave the boys R600 for their work.how should they divide the R600 among the three of them
Answer by macston(5194) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
They worked a combined total of 12 hours and R600/12 hrs=R50/hr,
so each should get R50 per hour worked:
Nathi 5 hrs x R50/hr = R250
Paul 4hrs x R50/hr = R200
Tim 3 hrs x R50/hr = R150
