Question

A medical secretary maintains the accounts and writes the paychecks
for a medical office complex. There are 36 people on the payroll. Eight people earn $10 per hour, eleven people earn $15 per hour, four people earn $18 per hour, six people earn $21 per hour, and seven people earn $26 per hour. If everyone works 40 hours per week, what is the total amount of money needed for the payroll each week?

Answer 1

Answer:

$25,000

Step-by-step explanation:

8 x $10 = 80 x 40 = $3,200

11 x $15 = 165 x 40 = $6,600

4 x $18 = 72 x 40 = $2,880

6 x $21 = 126 x 40 = $5,040

7 x $26 = 182 x 40 = $7,280

3200 + 6600 + 2880 + 5040 + 7280 = $25,000

I hope this helps!
