Answer 2

Answer:

Option B. $126.25

Step-by-step explanation:

At a county fair 4 employees were paid for 8 hours = $8.75 per hour

After 8 hours they were paid $2.50 extra for an hour

Their overtime earning = 8.75 + 2.50 = $11.25

Each employee worked for 8 hours and  5 hours overtime.

Each employee earned = (8.75 × 8) + (11.25 × 5)

                                       = $70 + $56.25

                                        = $126.25

Each employee earned $126.25.

Option B. $126.25
