Answer Details

To determine how much the second staff receives, we need to find out the total ratio of the ages of the three staff, which is 18 + 20 + 22 = 60. Next, we need to find the ratio of the second staff's age to the total age, which is 20/60 = 1/3. Then, we multiply the ratio by the total amount collected to find how much the second staff receives. So, 1/3 x ₦120,000 = ₦40,000. Therefore, the second staff receives ₦40,000. Answer (c) is correct.
