Luke's freight forwarding company charges $14 for picture frames delivered on time and $11 for picture frames delivered late. In the month of February, Luke's freight forwarding company collected $1696. For every 16 picture frames delivered, 12 were delivered on time and 4 were delivered late.

1. What was the total number of picture frames delivered late?
2. How much less money did Luke's freight forwarding company collect in February due to the late deliveries of the picture frames?

	On time	Late	Total
Number	12 u	4 u
Value	14	11
Total Value	168 u	44 u	212 u

(a)
Total amount collected in February
= 168 u + 44 u
= 212 u

212 u = 1696

1 u = 1696 ÷ 212 = 8

Total number of picture frames delivered late
= 4 u
= 4 x 8
= 32

(b)
Amount that Luke's freight forwarding company collected less from each late delivery of picture frames
= 14 - 11
= $3

Number of picture frames delivered late
= 4 u 
= 4 x 8
= 32

Amount that Luke's freight forwarding company collected less from all the late deliveries of picture frames 
= 32 x 3
= $96

Answer(s): (a) 32; (b) $96
