RATIO AND PROPORTION PROGRAM ENHANCEMENT UNIT PAUL IS PAID 473.88 FOR 38 1/4 HOURS OF WORK WHAT AMOUNT SHOULD HE BE PAID FO 40 HOURS

495.56 should be p[aid for 40 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

concept used

In ratio

a:b = c:d

Given

IS PAID 473.88 FOR 38 1/4 HOURS OF WORK

38 1/4 hour = 38.25 hours

if we get ratio for payment per hour

we have

473.88 / 38.25 or  473.88 : 38.25

now we have to find payment for 40 hours

let that payment be x

thus,  ratio for payment per hour in this case will be

x/40 or x:40

since

x:40 and  473.88 : 38.25 is representative of same program enhancement unit both ratio will be equal

thus

x:40 =  473.88 : 38.25

x/40 =  473.88 / 38.25

=> x = 40*(473.88 / 38.25 ) = 495.56

Thus,  495.56 should be p[aid for 40 hours.

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.
