Ingrid Foley · Answer 1

Andrew should recieve 123 dollars and Allison should get $164

Step-by-step explanation:

3/7 x 287 = 123

4/7 x 287 = 164

164 + 123 = 287

Raul Serrano · Answer 2

Andrew: $123; Allison: $164

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the work days together to make seven and divide that to $287 to get $41 and then multiply that to 3 days for Andrew to get $123 and multiply $41 to 4 to get $164.
