There is a missing parameter to get a definite answer – like the total number of employees.

Else It can be anything such as 9 men, 1 woman and 10 children

or 8 men, 3 women and 10 children, and so on.

It could be any combibnation to reach $100. For example:

5 men = $50

8 women = $40

20 children = $10

Total $100

This can be varied in dozens of combinations so you need to add another limiting fact like the total number of employees. Then a calculation can be made based on that using the remuneration to do so.

8 men, 3 women and 10 children

But why were the women getting less than the men?

Let X = total employees

Let .5x = children

Let 5x = women

Let 10x= men

set all = to 100

100 = .5x + 5x + 10x

100 = 15.5x

Then do the math
