Calculate the pay for the following day of a

weekly time card given a wage of $14/hr.

Morning:
In 08:00
Out 12:00
Afternoon:
In 12:45
Out 17:30

pay = $[?]​

Answer 1

Answer: $122.50

Explanation:

In Out

8:00 12:00 = 4 hours

12:45 17:30 = 4.75 hours

Total 8.75 hours

8.75 hours x $14/hr = $122.50

Note: to subtract 12:45 from 17:30, borrow 1 hour from 17 and add 60 minutes to 30:

17:30 → 16:90

- 12:45 - 12:45

4: 45

4 hours 45 minutes =
`4(3)/(4)` = 4.75 hours
