Question

Juliana opened a new escort business. She hired three girls: Destiny, Majestic and Heaven. All of Juliana's employees are allowed to charge their clients any rate of their choosing, but they must give Juliana 50% of their income. This is to pay for drivers and protection. Destiny charges $300 per hour, Majestic is pretty nasty, so she only charges $30 per hour, and Heaven charges $500 per hour. If all three girls worked one hour on their first day, how much did Juliana make from the girls?

thx

Answer 18

It distributes too, if you're interested. I mean the numbers, not STDs.
\[300x+30x+500x=j\]\[x(300+30+500)=j\]\[j=1100x\]
