If the max time that John can spend on Client A ($20/hr) in one week is 32 hours, and the min time is 8 hours, while the max time on Client B ($14/hr) is 8 hours and the min 5 hours, what is the RANGE (max, min) of total pay he can earn in one week (40 hours)
  • Client A Minimum = 20 x 8 hours = $160
  • Client A Maximum = 20 x 32 hours = $640
  • Client B Minimum = 14 x 5 hours = $70
  • Client B Maximum = 14 x 8 hours = $112

The Total Maximum Pay is found by adding Client A Maximum and Client B Maximum
Total Maximum = Client A Maximum + Client B Maximum
Total Maximum = 640 + 112
Total Maximum = 752

The Total Minimum Pay is found by adding Client A Minimum and Client B Minimum
Total Minimum = Client A Minimum + Client B Minimum
Total Minimum = 160 + 70
Total Minimum = 230

The Range is the difference between the Total maximum and the Total minimum
Range(Total Maximum, Total Minimum) = Total Maximum - Total Minimum
Range(752, 230) = 752 - 230
Range(752, 230) = 522
