Answer:

Total amount = R5112

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cooks be C.

Let the waiters be W.

Given the following data;

Number of cooks, C = 2

Number of waiters, W = 3

a. To find the amount earned by each cook;

C = 36 * R36 = R1296

b. To find the amount earned by each waiter;

W = 30 * R28 = R840

c. To find the total amount earned by the employees;

Total amount = 2C + 3W

Total amount = 2(1296) + 3(840)

Total amount = 2592 + 2520

Total amount = R5112
