G. Foreman is paid $10.50 an hour for a 40-hour week plus time-and-a-half for overtime.

Two part question:
-how much does he normally earn in a 40-hour week? and
-if he works 40 hours plus 5 hours overtime, how much does he earn?

Thank you. :)

1) 10.50 x 40 = 420
2) A half for over time => $5.25/per hour
5.25 x 5 = 26.25
26.25 + 420 = $446.25
