the question in English For 8 days of work, 12 workers have charged $ 640. How much will 16 workers with the same wages earn for 16 days? (APPLY RULE OF THREE)
if 12 workers --------------> charged $640 in 8 days 1 worker---------------> x x=640/12-------> $53.33 1 worker charged $53.33 for 8 days
1 worker charged $53.33----------------> for 8 days x-------------------------------------> 1 day x=$53.33/8------> x=$6.67 1 worker charged $6.67 for 1 day
therefore 16 workers with the same wages earn for 16 days = $6.67*16*16-----> $1706.67
the answer is $1706.67
