If you work overtime you will receive time and a half for every hour over 40 hours. i currently get paid $12.00 an hour and i really want to make an extra 300.00 by working overtime. ill need to work extra hours.

Using a rule of three, it is found that:

I'll need to work 17 extra hours.

----------------------

1 hour - $18

x hours - $300

Applying cross multiplication:

Rounding up:

I'll need to work 17 extra hours.

A similar problem is given at link

16 2/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular salary: $12.00/hour

Time and a half means 1.5 times the regular pay rate.

1.5 * $12/hour = $18/hour

The hours above 40 hours per week are paid at the rate of $18/hour.

total pay = pay rate * number of hours

(total pay)/(pay rate) = number of hours

number of hours = (total pay)/(pay rate)

number of hours = $300/($18/hour)

number of hours = 16 2/3 hours

16 2/3 hours

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!
