Solution

First, let's calculate how much Ashley earns from each shop per day.

At Shoppies, she earns £8 per hour for 5 hours, which equals £40.

At Booklife, she also earns £8 per hour for 5 hours, which equals £40. However, on this particular day, she also sells 3 books and therefore receives a bonus of £10. So, her total earnings from Booklife for that day are £40 + £10 = £50.

To find out how much more Ashley gets paid by Booklife than Shoppies on that day, we subtract her earnings from Shoppies from her earnings from Booklife: £50 - £40 = £10.

So, Ashley gets paid £10 more by Booklife than Shoppies on that day. The answer is C£10.
