you would each to find each persons work. so 360/9=40, each kid is worth 40.
72/18=4, each man is worth 4 days
162/12=13.5, so each women is 13.5

you would add them together, you need to know 4 men, 12 women, and 10 children together.
1 man is 4 so for men is 16
1 child is 40 so 10 children is 400
1 women is 13.5 so 12 women would be 162...you would just add those together.
