You didn&#39;t put any numbers or variables in your problem so I&#39;m just going to guess what you meant:


Tony made *[tex \Large x] zlotys (he&#39;s working in Poland) for *[tex \Large y] hours of work.  At the same rate, how much would he make for *[tex \Large z] hours of work?


If he made *[tex \Large x] monetary units for *[tex \Large y] time units of work, then he makes *[tex \Large \frac{x}{y}] monetary units per time unit.  Hence he would make a total of *[tex \Large \frac{xz}{y}] monetary units if he worked *[tex \Large z] time units.

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
