Answer: Maria makes more, 50 cents more per hour.

Explanation:

To solve divide the number of money they made by the amount of hours they worked. 146.25/15=9.75. Gabriel made 9.75 an hour,

205/20=10.25 Maria made 10.25 an hour.

Maria earned the most money per hour.

To find how much more she made subtract the person who made more money by the person who made less money per hour. 10.25-9.75=0.5 Maria earned an extra 50 cents per hour compared to Gabriel.
