So,

The total number of workers is 16, and they earned $1032.

Divide the total amount they earned by the number of workers.

1032/16

Simplify with prime factorization

P. F. F. of 1032: 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 43

P. F. F. of 16: 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

Similarities: 2 * 2 * 2 or 8

G. C. F. = 8

Simplify

129/2

Mixed: 64 1/2

Decimal: 64.5

Each worker earned $64.50.
