Question 1101489
Let {{{ x }}} = amount earned for this job for apprentice
{{{ 3x }}} = amount earned for this job for journeyman
{{{ 2.5*3x }}} = amount earned for this job by master
---------------------------------------------------
{{{ x + 3x + 7.5x = 8050 }}}
{{{ 11.5x = 8050 }}}
{{{ x = 700 }}}
and
{{{ 3x = 2100 }}}
{{{ 7.5x = 5250 }}}
-----------------
Apprentice makes $700
Journeyman makes $2,100
Master makes $5,250
---------------------------
check:
{{{ 700 + 2100 + 5250 = 8050 }}}
{{{ 8050 = 8050 }}}
OK
