Question

Rebecca’s boss pays her time and a half for overtime work. If her regular wage is $13.50 per hour, what is her overtime rate?

Answer 1

Answer: 20.25

Step-by-step explanation: Rebecca can expect to be making her regular 13.50 an hour, however once time and a half hits she’s looking at taking her 13.50 and dividing it by 2. So 13.50 divided by two is 6.75. You then take that 6.75 and add it on top of her regular 13.50 hourly. Putting you at 20.25 for time and a half.
