Explanation:

To answer this problem, rules for ratio and proportion and simple algebra will be applied. First let's determine the payment the narrator will get after 47 minutes. Remember that 1 hour is equal to 60 minutes. By simple ratio and proportion, we can compute for the amount of payment after 47 minutes:

60250=47x

60x=(250×47)

60x=11750

x=1175060

x= 195.83 dollars

Add this with 250 dollarswill give us the final answer as 445.83 dollars
