Answer 1

$2,208

Explanation:

In order to calculate her total pay for the month we simply need to use the hours provided in the question, multiply each amount of hours by they pay rate for that day/night. Finally, we add all of the products together to get the final pay for the month.

6 * (4*14) = 336

3 * (8 * 14) = 336

3 * (10 * 14) = 420

5 * (6 * 18) = 540

4 * (8 * 18) = 576

336 + 336 + 420 + 540 + 576 = $2,208

Finally, we can see that her total pay for the month is $2,208
