Bob gets paid $5 an hour for the regular hours he works and $6 an hour for any overtime hours he works. All hours over 40 in a week are considered overtime. If Bob works 44 hours in the first week and 48 hours in the second week, how much did he make?
Let's be accurate as possible. Think before you answer.
472
Bob has worked 40 hours / week x 2 weeks = 80 regular hours.

Bob got paid 80 hours x $5 / hour = $400 for his regular hours.

Bob worked 44 hours - 40 hours = 4 hours of overtime in the first week.

Bob worked 48 hours - 40 hours = 8 hours of overtime in the second week.

In total Bob worker 8 hours + 4 hours = 12 hours of overtime.

Bob got paid $6 / hour x 12 hours = $72 for overtime.

In 2 weeks Bob earned $400 + $72 = $472.

Thus, the answer is 472
