What is the amount paid to an employee that works 66 6 hours and sells 33 3 wagons?

Answer 1

The amount paid to an employee was 162

Explanation:

The amount paid to an employee was given by the expression 12h + 30w.

Here, h represents the number of hours worked and w represents the number of wagons sold.

It is given that an employee works 6 hours and sells 3 wagons.

So, put h = 6 and w = 3, we get,

12h + 30w = 12(6) + 30(3)

= 72 + 90

= 162

Hence, the amount paid to an employee was 162.
