Tanya and Keisha volunteer at the hospital after school. A local company has promised to donate one quarter to the hospital for every hour a student volunteers during the year. By the end of the year, Tanya and Keisha together have earned $58.50 for the hospital. Keisha volunteered twice as many hours as Tanya.

Let's divide 58.50 by .25 to find out how many hours both worked in total...

so we have 234 hrs And Keisha worked 2/3 of them and Tanya worked 1/3 of them

So 2/3 of 234 = 156 and 1/3 of 234 = 78
