Two friends work at different companies, P and S. Both companies use the number of hours that an employee works to calculate that employee’s vacation hours. In Company P if you work 10 hours you get 0.4 vacation hours, while in Company S if you work 100 hours you get 7 vacation hours. What is the difference in each friend’s vacation hours if both work 2,080 hours?

Respuesta :

Answer:

62.4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

For P:

Number of hours off on 10 hours of working=0.4

Number of hours on 2080 hours of working=2080/10*0.4

=83.2 hours

For S:  

Number of hours off on 100 hours of working=7

Number of hours on 2080 hours of working=2080/100*7

=145.6 hours

The difference between the vacation hours of P and S is of 62.4 hours. S will get more hours of vacation.
