If you work 7:30 for 8 days and make 11 dollars an hour how much do you make at the end of the 8 days?

Answer:

60 hrs x 11 = £660 net gross.

Explanation:

8 x 7 = 56 (full hours per week)

8 x 0.50 = 4 (1/2* 8 )additional hrs.

= 60 hrs.

Net gross means whole amount before deductions.

Your answer is $660.

First let's calculate how much would be made in 1 day, and then multiply it by 8.

Making $11 an hour means that for 7 hours you would make 7 × 11 = $77. For the extra 30 minutes you would make $5.50, which means in one day you would make 77 + 5.50 = $82.50.

Now if we multiply this by 8, we get 82.50 × 8 = $660.

I hope this helps!
