Jeff jones is paid $60 per day at his job at J. C. Penny. Jeff became ill on Monday and had to leave after 2/5 of a day. What did he earn on Monday?

To solve this, we simply multiply his usual pay by the amount of "day" he actually worked.

60 * (1 - 2/5) = 60 * (3/5)

180/5 = 36

Jeff jones is paid $36 on Monday
