Explanation:

Step1: Identify values of h and w

Given \( h = 6 \) (hours worked) and \( w = 3 \) (wagons sold).

Step2: Substitute into the expression

Substitute \( h = 6 \) and \( w = 3 \) into \( 12h + 30w \).
First, calculate \( 12h \): \( 12\times6 = 72 \)
Then, calculate \( 30w \): \( 30\times3 = 90 \)

Step3: Add the two results

Add the results from Step2: \( 72 + 90 = 162 \)

Answer:

162
