(Answer choices provided)
A. $495.60, B. $557.50
C. $92.10, D. $395.10

Answer 1

D. $395.10

Explanation:

1. First, the baker:

8 (hours a day) x 10.15 ($ per hr) x 3 (days worked) = 243.60

2. Then, the caterer:

6 (hours a day) x $25.25 ($ per hr) x 1 (days worked) = 151.50

$243.60 + $151.50 = $395.10
