Answer 1

Answer: $‭1,135.15‬

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate his basic pay;

= 40 * 14.60

= $584

Total for overtime worked during the week;

= 15 * 14.60 * 1.25

= $‭273.75‬

Total for overtime worked on Saturday;

= 6 * 14.60 * 1.5

= $131.40

Total for overtime worked on Sunday;

= 5 * 14.60 * 2

= $146

Sum all the figures;

= 584 + 273.75 + 131.40 + 146

= $‭1,135.15‬
