step 1

Find the unit rate

Taryn

(9,112.50)

Divide 112.50 by 9

112.50/9=$12.50 per law

Alastair

Divide 122.50 by 7

122.50/7=$17.5 per law

Find out how much Taryn earn per hour

Divide 112.50 by 7.5

112.5/7.5=$15 per hour

Find out how much Alastair earn per hour

Divide 122.50 by 5

122.5/5=$24.5 per hour

therefore

Alastair earns more per hour
