Ok so time and a half for extra work right? he worked 9 extra hours since 44-35=9. $20.04+$10.02=$30.06X9 since its 9 extra hours that he worked so that would be $270.54. don't forget about his regular work hours! so 35x20.04=$701.4 add that to his extra work hours $270.54+701.40= $971.94 so his total pay was $971.94 :)
