Answer:

$225

Step-by-step explanation:

Carlos spends 25 hours helping his friend to build a fence and he was paid $187.50

We have to first calculate the amount for each hour worked

25hr= 187.50

1hr= x

x= 187.50/25

= 7.5 hours

Therefore if he works for 30 hours he will earn

7.5× 5

= 37.5

= 187.50+37.5

= $225

Hence if he works for 30 hours he will earn $225
