Question 339772: morag delivers papers seven days a week
she earns £x each weekday,and twice each weekday amount for each weekend day
how much does she earn for the whole week
Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
She earns x each weekday.
She earns 2*x each weekend day
She earns 5*x + 2*(2*x) for the whole week.
That's equivalent to 9*x for the whole week.
There are 5 weekdays and each earns x for a total of 5*x.
There are 2 weekend days and each earns 2*x for a total of 2*2*x = 4*x.
5*x + 4*x = 9*x.
