    Let x hours be the number of hours Issac worked

    x+6 hours be the number of hours Ruby worked

    4 (x+6) hours be the number of hours Svetlana worked.

    x + x + 6 + 4 (x+6) = 126

    x + x + 6 + 4x + 24 = 126

    6x + 30 = 126

    6x = 96

    x = 16

    Therefore, Issac worked 16 hours.

    Ruby worked 16+6 = 22 hours

    Svetlana worked 22 * 4 = 88 hours.
