Question

5 workers earn 8000kn (KN is Croatian Value for money) for 8 days.
How much 4 workers will earn for 12 days?

Answer 1

let x = amount earned for one day by one worker.

5x = (8000/8) --> solve for x --> plug it in the next one -->

4x = z/12 --> z is your answer

Answer 2

I don't get it , i am very bad at math.

4x = 8000/12 ??

Answer 3

5x = 1000 --> x = 200

4(200) = z/12 --> z = 9600 for 12 days

Answer 4

\[--> NumberOfWorkers \times SalaryForOneDay \times XDays = TotalForXDays\]

basically rearranged these and plugged in their numerical values

Answer 5

Ahaaa i got it , i calculated and it's 9600 just like you wrote , but how did you get that salary for one day is 200?

Answer 6

5 * x * 8 = 8000
