Answer:

$36

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim worked from 8am - 2 pm , which is 6 hours

Woody worked form 10am - 2pm, which is 4 hours

If we take the total time (4+6 = 10) and divide the amount they got, we have:

$60/10 = $6 per hour worked

Since Jim worked 6 hours, he will be paid 6 * 6 = $36

The rest, 60 - 36 = $24 would be paid to Woody (he worked less).

Jim's fair share of earning is $36
