Asecretary works at 35 hours a week for which she is paid $262.50 . she work 6 hours overtime on saturday which she is paid for at time and a half and 11 hours overtime on sunday which she is paid for at double time. calculate her gross wage for the week

STEP 1:
determine hourly pay rate; divide total weekly pay by number of regular hours worked

= $262.50 ÷ 35 hours
= $7.50 an hour

STEP 2:
determine time and a half for the 6 hours worked Saturday; multiply regular hourly rate in step 1 by 1 1/2 and then multiply by number of hours

= 6 hrs * (1.5 * $7.50)
= 6 * ($11.25)
= $67.50 time and a half pay

STEP 3:
determine double time; multiply regular pay rate by 2 and then by number of double time hours worked

= 11 hrs * (2 * $7.50)
= 11 * $15
= $165 double time pay

STEP 4:
Add the regular pay, time and a half pay from step 2, and double time pay from step 3

= $262.50 + $67.50 + $165
= $495 gross weekly pay

ANSWER: $495 is her gross weekly pay.
