Question

six people working for five days were paid a total of sh 6000.how many more money could the same number of be paid for 12 days???​

Answer 1

6000

Explanation:

6 people paid for 5 days= 6000

1 person paid for 1 day= 6000/6

=1000

6 people paid for 12 days= 1000x 12

= 12000

12000- 6000= 6000

Answer 2

Let’s work out how much they would be paid in one day:
6000/5 = 1200 for six people in one day.

Now to find 12 days, just times 1200 by 12:
1200*12 = 14400 for six people in 12 days.

Now to find the difference:
14400-6000 = 8400 is how much more money they could’ve made

Answer: 8400
