Question

Filbert makes $14 per hour. If he makes time and a half for overtime, how much will he make for working 63 hours?

Answer 1

Answer:

$1323.00

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple equation that can be used to figure this out is:

p*1.5*o=t

The variables mean:

p- hourly pay

o- hours worked overtime

t- total amount of money earned.

(Also, the 1.5 is always used to calculate overtime, no matter what job, unless otherwise specified, and as referred in the problem as "time and a half").

So, to finally work out this problem:

($14*1.5)*63=?

first, (14*1.5)= $21

($21*63)= $1323.
