Show step-by-step solution

Answer: b. ₱3,660

  1. Weekly wage = daily wage × number of days worked.
  2. 610×6=3660610 \times 6 = 3660, so the worker earns ₱3,660.

Common errors to watch for

  • (a) Multiplied by 5 days instead of the 6 days stated.
  • (c) Multiplied by 7 days; the worker is paid only for days worked.
  • (d) Multiplied by 30, which gives a rough monthly figure, not weekly.
