Answer:

Apprentice=$800

Journeyman=$1600

Master=$2400

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that all the crew won a total of $4800 then it is the salary of the apprentice, the journeyman and the master carpenter. It say that the journeyman makes 200% of the apprentice, then it means that the journeyman won the double of the apprentice. The master won 150% of what a journeyman, it means that the master won 1.5 of the salary of the journeyman.

With this information we can write the next set of equations.

A+J+M=\$4800\\J=2A\\M=1.5J

Using the second equation in the third equation we can know how much won the master in terms of the salary of the apprentice, then:

M=1.5J\\M=1.5(2A)\\M=3A

With this we could rewrite the first equation as:

A+J+M=\$4800\\A+2A+3A=\$4800\\6A=\$4800\\A=\dfrac{\$4800}{6}\\A=\$800

Then the aprentice earn $800, the journeyman $1600 and the master $2400
