First we calculate the extra earnings Jay-Lee makes from the deliveries.
Extra earnings per delivery = R10
Number of deliveries per day = 6
Total extra earnings per day = R10 x 6 = R60

Total earnings for the month = Daily earnings x Number of days worked
Total earnings for the month = R80 x 15 = R1200
Therefore, Jay-Lee's total earnings for this month will be R1200.
