Answer 1

Answer:

a.)$347,500

b.)$7,239.58333

c.)$267,307.692

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) Kobe gets paid $27,800,000 to play 80 games

$27,800,000 ÷ 80 = 347,500

b.) for every game 48 min, Kobe gets paid $347,500

$347,500 ÷ 48 (the amount of min) = $7,239.58333

c) there are 80 games, each lasting 48 mins

all games add up to 3,840 mins

meaning all games last to 64 hours

assuming he gets paid $27,800,000

for 80 games we can calculate that he gets paid $434,375 an hour for a game

however, including training time this becomes 104 hours

meaning $27,800,000 ÷ 104 = $267,307.692
