Question

Really need help on this.Calculate the pay for the following day of a weekly time card given a wage of $15/hr. Monday morning in and out - 8:00 - 12:00afternoon in and out- 12:45 - 17:30 pay = $ ?(round your answer to the nearest hundredth)Thanks.

Answer 1

Morning:

From 8: 00 - 12: 00, we have 4 hours

If they pay $15/hr

Pay for 4 hours = 4 x $15 = $60

Afternoon :

From 12: 45 - 17: 30, we have 4 hours 45 minute

4hours = $60

To get the amount per minute

Simply divide $15 by 60, it will give ; $0.25 / min

so 45 min = 45 x $0.25= $11.25

4hours 45 minute = $60 + $11.25 = $71.25

Total pay for the day = $60 + $71.25 =$131.25
