Two employees of Company X, Winnie and Ali, have been informed that they will each receive bonuses this year, and that, for these bonuses, they will share a total amount of 560,000 KES (Kenyan shillings). Winnie makes a base salary of 4,600,000 KES per annum, and Ali makes a base salary of 3,400,000 KES per annum.
Assuming that the two employees receive the same percentage of their respective per annum base salaries as bonuses, indicate below the bonus amount that Winnie will receive and the bonus amount that Ali will receive. Make only two selections, one in each column.

guddo
Let x% is the bonus that both with receive. Now,
\(\frac{x}{100}*4600000 + \frac{x}{100}*3400000 = 560000\)
80000x = 560000
x = 7
\(Bw = \frac{x}{100}*4600000 = 322000\)
\(Ba = \frac{x}{100}*3400000 = 238000 OR (560000 - 322000 = 238000)\)

4,600,000x : 3,400,000x = 23x : 17x = 40x
40x= 560,000
x= 14,000
Winnie: 23 * 14,000= 322,000
Ali: 17 * 14,000= 238,000
40x= 560,000
x= 14,000
Winnie: 23 * 14,000= 322,000
Ali: 17 * 14,000= 238,000
