Assuming that no overtime was factored into his wages, Alex would have gotten a gross pay of $359.60. This was done by multiplying $7.86 x 45.75 hours.

Assuming that overtime was factored into his wages, Alex would have gotten a gross pay of $382.19. This was done by figuring out how much "time and a half" is for over time. "time" = 7.86; "and a half"= 7.86/2= 3.93

Time AND a half would equal 7.86 + 3.93= 11.79.

So, Alex would get an additional $11.79 for the hours OVER 40 hours which was 5 hours and 75 minutes..

11.79 x 5.75 = 67.79

Total hours for a 40 hour work week for Alex with 7.86 would equal a gross pay of 314.40. Plus 67.79. = 382.19
