Rael earns $120 per day. He receives and extra $30 for every 6 days of work.
- How much will he earn altogether after working for 6 days?
- How much will he earn altogether after working for 33 days?
(a)
Amount that Rael earns after working for 6 days
= 120 x 6 + 30
= 720 + 30
= $750
(b)
Number of sets of 6 days in 33 days
= 33 ÷ 6
= 5 r 3
Amount that Rael earns for working 5 sets of 6 days
= 5 x 750
= $3750
Amount that Rael earns after working 3 days
= 3 x 120
= $360
Total amount that Rael earns after working for 33 days
= 3750 + 360
= $4110
Answer(s): (a) $750; (b) $4110
