So let's simplify it

$9.75 x 4 = $39 for Monday
$9.75 x 6 = $58.50 for Tuesday
$9.75 x 5 = $48.75 for Wednesday
$9.75 x 5 = $48.75 for Thursday
$9.75 x 7 = $68.75 for Friday so end of the week would be

48.75 x 2 = 97.50
58.50 + 68.75 = 127.25
Remainder is the 39 so we add that

97.50 + 127.25 + 39 = $263.75 for the week

Monthly if same hours are done is

$263.75 x 4 = $1,055
