Problema Solution

Alice Hill is paid $5.80 per hour. Last week she worked 62 hours. Calculate Alice's pay (she is entitled to time and a half).

Answer provided by our tutors

We multiply the number of hours 62 with 1.5 since she is entitled to time and a half. Then we multiply the total hours by the hourly rate $5.80:

1.5*62*5.80 = $539.40

Alice's pay is $539.40.
