Given,
Monday to Friday working hours = 8.5 hours
Saturday working hours= 6.75 hours
Salary rate = P 55.25 per hour
To find,
The total earning of one week.
Solution,
We can easily solve this mathematical problem by the following process.
First of all, we have to calculate the total working hours of a week.
Total working hours from Monday to Friday
= (8.5×5)
= 42.5 hours
Total working hours of the week
= (Total working hours of Monday to Friday + Working hours of Saturday)
= (42.5+6.75)
= 49.25 hours
Total salary
= Total hours × Rate per hour
= 49.25 × 55.25
= P 2721.06
Hence, her total weekly earning is P 2721.06
