How many percents less earned Paul an hour than Václav?

How many hours did Paul more than Václav?

How much did Paul earn more than Václav?

Correct answer:

a =  25 %
b =  30 h
c =  12.5 %

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} p=300\text{ Kc/h } \\ v=p+p\mathrm{/}3=300+300\mathrm{/}3=400\text{ Kc/h } \\ {h}_2=60\text{ h } \\ {h}_2=h_1-h_1\mathrm{/}3 \\ {h}_1=h_2\mathrm{/}(1-{\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}})=60\mathrm{/}(1-{\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}})=90\text{ h } \\ a=100\cdot {\displaystyle \frac{v-p}{v}}=100\cdot {\displaystyle \frac{400-300}{400}}=25\mathrm{\%} \end{gathered}$$

$b=h_1-h_2=90-60=30\text{ h}$

$$\begin{gathered} z_1=p\cdot h_1=300\cdot 90=27000\text{ Kc } \\ {z}_2=v\cdot h_2=400\cdot 60=24000\text{ Kc } \\ c=100\cdot {\displaystyle \frac{z_1-z_2}{z_2}}=100\cdot {\displaystyle \frac{27000-24000}{24000}}={\displaystyle \frac{25}{2}}={\displaystyle \frac{25}{2}}\mathrm{\%}=12.5\mathrm{\%} \end{gathered}$$
