Answer:

$544

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello.

So Mr. Zee works a week of 44 hours, and he's getting paid $12 an hour, and any time over 40 hours a week, he get's paid his normal wage plus half his normal wage, or $6, so as soon as he starts working longer then 40 hours, he is getting paid $18 an hour.

So take 40, multiply it by 12, which gives you $480

Next, take 4, and multiply it by $16 ( his overtime ), which gives you $64.

And lastly, take $480 and add $64, which gives you a total sum of $544
