Answer 2

£352.80

Explanation:

Divide the total number of catalogues by the per hours and hours.

15 per hour x 8 hours= 90 catalogues

360 catalogues ÷ 90 catalogues = 4 students.

Divide the total number of leaflets by the per hours and hours.

80 per hour x 8 hours= 640 leaflets

1440 leaflets ÷ 640 leaflets = 3 students

4 students + 3 students=7 students.

7 students x £51.30 per day = £352.80

The wage will be £352.80
