Answer 1

12:45Answer:

Part A: 9 hours 45 minutes

Part B: $126.1575

Explanation:

Part A,

From 7:45 to 12:15 is 4 hours and 30 minutes

From 12:45 which he clocked back in to 6:00 is 5 hours and 15 minutes.

4 hours and 30 minutes plus 5 hours and 15 minutes = 9 hours and 45 minutes.

Part B, 9 hours and 45 minutes can be represented as 9.45

And since he gets 15.35 "per" hour shows we can multiply.

15.35 x 9.45 = 126.1575

Therefor he earned 126.15.
