Answer: 5/16

Given:

A part-time worker earned five times as much in September as in each of the other months

Solution:

There are 12 months in a year. During September, a part-time worker earned fives times as much as the other months.

X = (11+5)

X=16

worker's earnings for September would be:

5/16
