The gross income earned by the workers if paid time and a half on Saturdays and double time on Sundays is $180.06

How to find gross income

Total = 10.75(1.5)(x) + 10.75(2)(y)

where,

  • x = hours worked on Saturday = 4.5 hours
  • y = hours worked on Sunday = 5 hours

Total = 10.75(1.5)(4.5) + 10.75(2)(5)

= 72.5625 + 107.5
