Answer: 188.53$ in total.

$31.42 as hourly wage .

Explanation:

Wage1 for 6hours = $12.4 * 6

Wage2 for 20minutes = $12.4 / 3

Since an Hour has three 20 minutes in it , so hourly wage $12.4 is divided by 3 to get the wage for a 20minute work.

Wage3 as Tips = $110

Total Wages for Tuesday = Wage1 + Wage2 + Wage3

= $188.53

New hourly Wage = $188.53 / 6 = $31.42
