An electrical contractor employs 16 people. Five people earn $15 per hour, four people earn $17 per hour, and the remaining people earn $16 per hour. What is the total hourly wage earned by all 16 people

$255 per hour

Total number of employed people = 16

(i) 5 people earn $15 per hour

That means that the total amount earned by those 5 is;

5 x $15 = $75 per hour

(ii) 4 people earn $17 per hour

That means that the total amount earned by those 4 is;

4 x $17 = $68 per hour

(iii) The remaining people earn $16 per hour.

There are 7 people remaining. i.e

16 - 5 - 4 = 7

That means that the total amount earned by those remaining (7) is;

7 x $16 = $112 per hour

The total hourly wage is therefore the sum of all the results in i, ii and iii. i.e

Total = $75 + $68 + $112

Total = $255

Therefore, the total hourly wage earned by all 16 people is $255
