Question

A secretary earns $9 per hour and worked a total of 41 hours last week. She earns double time for work beyond 40 hours. Calculate her total pay.

Answer 1

378$

Explanation:

40 × 9 = 360 so her hours are multiplied by her money she gets by the hour

Next

9 × 2 = 18 Because she worked 1 extra hour she earned double

Finally you do

360+18 = 378$
