Answer:

Charles

Explanation:

Bart worked for 36 hours, and earned $612.

$612 / 36 = $17 is what he earned per hour

Charles worked for 34 hours, and earned $663.

$663 / 34 = $19.5 is what he earned per hour

You don't even need to solve for anything actually. Just looking at the given values, you will see that Charles earned more money despite working less hours compared to Bart.
