Explanation & Answer

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!

Here the you work out working time in a day = (24-10)hrs = 14×60×60 seconds=50400sevonds


So for 1st scenario of 1 bill he will get 

3700000000÷50400= 73,412.698


For 2nd scenario he will get 3700000000÷7000=528,571. 42 


So he will go for the second offer as he will count more money

Please let me know if you need any clarification. I'm always happy to answer your questions.
