conversations.value: A shipping boat's crew consisted of 17 sailors, with five inexperienced sailors. Each experienced sailor was paid 1/5 times more than the inexperienced sailors. If the inexperienced sailors were paid $10 per hour for a 60-hour workweek, calculate the total combined monthly earnings of the experienced sailors.
  Give me a detailed solution.

conversations.value: If the experienced sailors received 1/5 times more money than the inexperienced sailors, they were paid 1/5*10 = $2 more.
  The total hourly earnings for the experienced sailors each is $10+$2= $12
  In a 60-hour workweek, an experienced sailor is paid 60*$12 = $720
  In a month, an experienced sailor is paid 4*$720 = $2880
  If there were five inexperienced sailors, the total number of experienced sailors was 17-5 = 12
  If each experienced sailor was paid $2280 per month, the total combined monthly earnings for the experienced is 12*2880 = $34560
