Answer:

Emma should get $14.60, while Jessica should get $23.20 dollars

Explanation:

Step 1:

Start with Emma. Emma has two vowels "E' and "A", so 6x2= 12.

Next, for the consonants, the name Emma has two "M"s, so 1.3x2=2.6. Then add 12 and 2.6 for $14.6, or $14.60.

Step 2:

Use Jessica

The name Jessica has 4 consonants, 2 being "S", one being "J", and one being "C", so 1.3x4=5.2. Next, the name Jessica has 3 vowels, so 6x3=18, then add 5.2 to 18 to get 23.2, or $23.20.

Thus, Emma should get $14.60 dollars, and Jessica should get $23.20 dollars
