Answer 1

Answer:

I will make $ 13.20 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Employee gets money for Working from 2.00 PM to 6.00 PM = $\ 12$ per hour

Employee gets money for working from 6.00 PM to 12.00 AM  will get additional 10$\%$=$\frac{10}{100}\times12= \ 1.2$ per hour

Employee gets money for working from 12.00 AM to 01.00 AM will get additional 15$\%$=$\frac{15}{100}\times12= \ 1.8$ per hour

Solution:
