Question

When Alexis Ross works overtime (and hours over 40 hours a week), she is paid 1.5 times her regular hourly rate. Last week she worked 48 hours. If her regular hourly rate is $10.10, what did she earn last week?

Answer 1

40 hours at 10.10 per hour = 404

10.10 x 1.5 = 15.15 overtime pay per hour

15.15 x 8 = 121.20

404 + 121.20 = $525.20 total
