The waitress and hostess at a restaurant share the tips at the end of every shift. Between the two of them, they earn an average of $75 in tips. The waitress takes $55, and the hostess takes $20. If they continue to earn money at this rate, how much will the waitress receive if they earn $300 at the end of their next shift? A. $80 B. $110 C. $165 D. $220

Respuesta :

They get 55/75 and you want to know x/300

55/75 x X/300

 Cross multiply 55 x 300 = 16500

 Divide that by 75

16500/75 = 220

 x = 220

 They will get $220

Answer is D. $220
