Yesterday it took 5 cleaners 4 and 1/2 hours to clean all the rooms in a hotel. There are only 3 cleaners to clean all the rooms in the hotel today. Each cleaner is paid £8.20 for each hour or part of an hour they work. How much will each cleaner be paid today?

calculista
we know that
5 cleaners clean all the rooms in a hotel in 4 and 1/2 hours 
100% ----------> 4.5 hours
x%----------> 1 hour
x=22.22%
divide by 4 cleaners
22.22%/4---->5.56%
that means each cleaner clean a 5.56% in 1 hour

then  
3 cleaners-------> 3*5.56%-------> 16.67%  in 1 hour

16.67%--------> 1 hour
100%-------> x
x=100/16.67---> x=6 hours

find the payment of each cleaner
6*£8.20 ----> £49.20

the answer is
 £49.20
