Thomas and sharlina work on weekends and holidays doing odd jobs around the neighborhood. they are paid by the day, not by the hour. they earn the same whole number of dollars per day. last month tomas earned $184, and sharlina earned $207. how many days did each person work? what is their daily pay?
Thomas earned the last month = $184
Sharlina earned the last month = $207
GCF (Greatest Common Factor) = 207-184
= 23
Thomas working the last month = Total earned/GCF
= 184/23
= 8
Hence the Thomas worked for 8 days
Similerly,
Sharlina working the last month = Total earned/GCF
= 207/23
= 9
Hence the Sharlina worked for 9 days
