Final answer:

Neil works for a total of 52 hours per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate Neil's total work hours, we need to consider his work schedule for each day of the week. On weekdays, he works from 9 am to 5 pm, which is a total of 8 hours. On weekends, he works from 10 am to 4 pm, which is 6 hours. In a week, there are 5 weekdays and 2 weekend days.

To calculate the total work hours per week, we multiply the number of weekday hours by the number of weekdays and the number of weekend hours by the number of weekend days:

Total work hours = (weekday hours × number of weekdays) + (weekend hours × number of weekend days)

Total work hours = (8 hours × 5 weekdays) + (6 hours × 2 weekend days)

Total work hours = 40 hours + 12 hours

Total work hours = 52 hours

Therefore, Neil works for a total of 52 hours per week.
