- For each ornament, a worker is paid $3.35.
- The worker makes 5 ornaments in every 20 min.
- Amount earned in 4 hours
- Ornaments made for every 20 min = 5
- Then, in 4 hrs = ?
First,
- Converting hrs to min,
- 1 hr 60 min
- 4 hr x min
Cross-multiplying,
- 1 * x = 60 * 4
- x = 240 min
Now,
- Ornaments made in 240 min = ?
- 5 ornaments 20 min
- x ornaments 240 min
Cross-multiplying,
- x = 60 ornaments
Now,
- Amount earned for 60 ornaments =
- 1 ornament $3.35
- 60 ornaments $ x
Cross-multiplying,
- 1 * x = 60 * 3.35
- x = $201
Therefore,
