Answer:
Avery earns $1,080 during summer
Avery weekly earnings = $1,080 / 12
= $90
Carmen earns $960 during summer
Carmen weekly earnings = $960/12
= $80
Carmen earns more money during summer break
Step-by-step explanation:
Avery payment = $360 every four weeks
Carmen payment = $480 every six weeks
summer break lasts a total of 12 weeks
Avery pay during summer = Total summer break weeks / 4 weeks × payment per 4 weeks
= 12 / 4 × $360
= 3 × $360
= $1,080
Carmen pay during summer = Total summer break weeks / 6 weeks × payment per 6 weeks
= 12 / 6 × $480
= 2 × $480
= $960
Avery earns $1,080 during summer
Avery weekly earnings = $1,080 / 12
= $90
Carmen earns $960 during summer
Carmen weekly earnings = $960/12
= $80
Carmen earns more money during summer break
