<PRE><B>Question 270242</B>
An 8 hour day for Simon is:
4 hours to 12:15 and
4 hours to 4:15
Up to 4:15, Simon makes
$10/hr, so he gets
{{{8*10 = 80}}} dollars
From 4:15 to 10:15 is 6 hours
15 minutes more makes 6.25 hours
The time and a half rate is
{{{10*1.5 = 15}}} dollars/hr
{{{15*6.25 = 93.75}}} dollars
Simon got paid
{{{80 + 93.75 = 173.75}}} dollars
