In a particular week a man receives 909.50 but 229.50 was for a overtime. If he works a basic week of 40 hours and overtime is paid for at the time and a half rate, calculate the amount of hours worked that week.

Respuesta :

Total salary = 909.50
Out of this, overtime salary was = 229.50

Normal salary for 40 hours was = 909.50 - 229.50 = 680

Hourly rate = 680/40 = 17

Overtime is time and half = 17 + 17/2 = 17 + 8.5 = 25.5

Number of overtime hours = 229.50/25.5 = 9 hours
