Question

The hourly rate for a part-time job is S8, where normal working hours are from 9 a.M. To 6 p.M., with a one-hour lunch break. The overtime rate is 1.5 times of the hourly rate. How many hours did Bernard work overtime if he earned $100 on a particular day?

Answer 1

Answer: 11 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

9 - 6 = 8 hours if we excude the lunch hour.

For normal 8 hours, the wages are 64

Overtime rate is 1 1/2 times 8 = 12

For the balance $36, he worked for 3 hours
