Question

A crew consists of 1 apprentice, 1 journeyman, and 1 master carpenter. The crew receives a check for $3600 for a job they just finished. A journeyman makes 200% of what an apprentice makes, and a master carpenter makes 150% of what a journeyman makes. How much does each person on the crew earn?

Answer 1

x= apprentice pay
2x=journeyman pay
1.5(2x)=carpenter pay
x+2x+3x=3600
6x=3600
x=600 = apprentice
2x=1200=journeyman
3x= 1800=carpenter
