Answer:

To calculate Hugo's pay for the weekend, we need to calculate his regular pay and his overtime pay separately.

Regular pay for the weekend:

Hugo worked 7 hours on Saturday and 4 hours on Sunday, for a total of 11 hours. Since his normal rate of pay is £9.00 per hour, his regular pay for the weekend is:

7 hours x £9.00/hour (Saturday) + 4 hours x £9.00/hour (Sunday) = £63.00 + £36.00 = £99.00

Overtime pay for the weekend:

To calculate Hugo's overtime pay, we need to determine how many of his hours were worked at the overtime rate. The overtime rate is 1 1/3 times his normal hourly rate, which is:

1 1/3 x £9.00/hour = £12.00/hour

Hugo worked a total of 11 hours over the weekend, so we need to subtract his regular hours (which are paid at his normal rate) to find his overtime hours:

11 hours - (7 hours on Saturday + 4 hours on Sunday) = 0 overtime hours

Since Hugo did not work any overtime hours over the weekend, his overtime pay is zero.

Therefore, Hugo's total pay for the weekend is his regular pay of £99.00.
