let angela work for 12 hrs and get 1650 rs. (m =1650)   According to question, linda works 75% more time and gets the same amount. so let linda work 21 hrs and get 1650 rs.   so they do a total of  21 +12=

33 hrs of work and get 3300 rs together . The question basically asks to equalise their payment. so a total of 3300 rs is received by them and they do 10 hrs work together. average rate will be  3300/33= 
<gadget id="calculator"> 3300/33</gadget>
<output>100</output>
100 rs per hr. so linda should get 21*100= 
<gadget id="calculator">21*100</gadget>
<output>2_100</output>
