Q: Tina makes $18.00 an hour. If she works more than 8 hours per shift, she is eligible for overtime,
which is paid by your hourly wage + 1/2 your hourly wage. If she works 10 hours every day for 5
days, how much money does she make? (GSM8K)
A: Reasoning process: First, let’s ﬁgure out how
many hours Tina works per week. She works 10
hours per day and 5 days per week, so 10*5 = 50
hours. Next, let’s ﬁgure out how many of those
hours are overtime. She is eligible for overtime
if she works more than 8 hours per shift and she
works 10 hours per shift, so 10-8 = 2 hours of
overtime per shift. And since Tina works 5 shifts
and 2 hours of overtime per shift, she works a total
of 5*2 = 10 hours of overtime. Now we can ﬁgure
out how much Tina makes in regular pay. She
works 50-10 = 40 hours per week at her regular
wage of $18 per hour, so she makes 40*18 = $720
in regular pay. Now we can ﬁgure out how much
Tina makes in overtime pay. She gets time and a
