You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = hours at kfc
y = hours at mcd
---
x + y = 25
---
mcd pays more per hour than kfc, so work as much as possible at mcd:
y = 15 (the max hours allowed at mcd)
---
x + y = 25
x + 15 = 25
x = 25 - 15
x = 10
---
answer:
x = hours at kfc = 10
y = hours at mcd = 15
