Bill earned $10.00 per hour. He worked 40 hours at regular rate, 2 hours at time and a half and 3 hours at double time. Compute the total wages.

Hello, the answer is $450.

Here's how I got the answer...

We know Bill earns $10 per hour.. He works 40 hours at regular rate, which would make about $400.

He then works for 2 more hours, makes that $20..

He also then works for 3 more hours, makes that $30..

Now you add that up. The answer would be $450.
