Word Problem

The problem above is asking for the total amount that the clerk gets from his job considering his regular rate, overtime and holiday. There are four steps to find the total amount.

-Find how much the clerk gets in working for 40 hours in a week.

-Find how much he gets in his 5-hour overtime.

-Find how much he gets in 2-hour holiday work.

Add all the amount.

Given:

Rate per Hour - 45.25

Number of Hours in a week - 40 hours

Overtime Rate - 1.50 times the regular rate

Number of Overtime Hours - 5 hours

Holiday Rate - Double of the Regular Rate

Number of Holiday Hours - 2 hours

Solution:

Step 1: Multiply the number of hours by the rate per hour.

40 × 45.25 = 1810  

Step 2: Multiply the rate per hour by 1.50, then multiply by the number of overtime hours.

(45.25 × 1.50) × 5

= 67.875 × 5

= 339.375 (Round off to two decimal places.)

= 339.38

Step 3: Double the regular rate, then multiply by the number of holiday hours.

(45.25 + 45.25) × 2

= 90.50 × 2

= 181

Step 4: Add.

1810 + 339.38 + 181 = 2330.38

Final Answer:

2330.38
