Answer: Option 'b' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount Josh is able to save = $480

Number of hours of work each week = 5

Number of weeks = 3

So, Amount Josh makes is given  by

\dfrac{480}{5\times 3}\\\\=\dfrac{480}{15}\\\\=\$32

Similarly,

Number of hours of work each week by Greg = 8

Number of weeks = 3

So, Amount Greg makes is given by

\dfrac{480}{3\times 8}\\\\=\dfrac{480}{24}\\\\=\$20

More amount of money that Josh make than Greg is given by

32-20\\\\=\$12

Hence, Option 'b' is correct.

Josh = 480/15 or 32

Greg = 480/24 or 20

Let J = how much more Josh has than Greg.

J = 32 - 20

Solve for J to find your answer.
