Final answer:
Ganesan worked 12 hours per day during the 6 weeks.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many hours Ganesan worked per day during the 6 weeks, we need to calculate his total earnings and then divide it by the number of days and weeks he worked.
First, let's calculate his total earnings. He earned $4 per hour and worked for 5 days a week for 6 weeks, so his total earnings are:
Total earnings = $4/hour * 5 days/week * 6 weeks = $120/week * 6 weeks = $720
In addition to his earnings, Ganesan was given a $2 transport allowance per day. Since he worked for 5 days a week for 6 weeks, his total transport allowance is:
Total transport allowance = $2/day * 5 days/week * 6 weeks = $60/week * 6 weeks = $360
To find out how many hours he worked per day, we need to subtract the transport allowance from his total earnings and then divide it by the number of days and weeks:
Hours worked per day = (Total earnings - Total transport allowance) / (Number of days * Number of weeks) = ($720 - $360) / (5 days/week * 6 weeks) = $360 / 30 days = 12 hours/day
Therefore, Ganesan worked 12 hours per day during the 6 weeks.
