Answer 1

Answer:

Gross pay = $318.11

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount earned per hour = $4.25

Amount earned for the 15 regular hours = $4.25 x 15

Amount earned for the 15 regular hours = $63.75

The overtime = 5 hours

The rate is 1.5 times the regular rate

Amount earned for 5 hours overtime = (5 x 1.5 x $4.25)

Amount earned for 5 hours overtime = $31.875

Tips = 18% of $1236

Tips = (18/100) x $1236

Tips = $222.48

Gross pay = (Amount earned for the 15 regular hours) + (Amount earned for 5 hours overtime) + Tips

Gross pay = $63.75 + $31.875 + $222.48

Gross pay = $318.105

Gross pay = $318.11
