Hurryyy !!! Lincoln Glass pays it workers overtime if they work on weekends or

holidays. Overtime is 1/2 times the usual hourly pay. If Tim was
earning $8.25 an hour, how much would he get for 1 hour of
overtime? For 8 hours of overtime?

Explanation:

since overtime is 1/2 the usual pay which is 8.25 or 8 1/4 then its 8 1/4 (divided) by 1/2 which is equal to 4.125 or 4 1/8 so: in 1 hour the workers get paid 4 1/8 dollars and in 8 hours its 8 x 4 1/8 which is equal to 33

really hope this helps :) good luck
