We are given : Rate for regular pay = $12 per hour.

Rate for over time = $12 and a half rate of $12, that is 12+ 12/2 =12+6= $18 per hour.

We need to find the total pay for 40 hours of regular time and 10 hours of overtime.

<em>Pay for 40 hours at the rate $12 per hour = 40 × 12 = $480.</em>

<em>Pay for 10 hours of overtime at the rate $18 per hour = 10 × 18 = $180. </em>

Total payment for 40 hours of regular time and 10 hours of overtime = 480 + 180=$660.

<h3>Therefore total pay or 40 hours of regular time and 10 hours of overtime is $660.</h3>

If you're saying his over time pay is $18 then....

40x12=$480
10x18=$180

480+180=$660
