Malik Boykin is paid $8.20 per hour and time and a half for any work over 40 hours a week. Find his total hours gross pay per week
To find Malik's total gross pay per week, we need to consider two scenarios: if he works 40 hours or less, and if he works more than 40 hours.
If Malik works 40 hours or less, his gross pay will simply be his hourly rate multiplied by the number of hours worked. So the calculation will be: $8.20/hour x [number of hours worked]
If Malik works more than 40 hours, he will receive time and a half for every hour worked over 40. In this case, we need to calculate his regular pay for the first 40 hours and his overtime pay for the additional hours. The calculation will be: ($8.20/hour x 40 hours) + ($8.20/hour x 1.5 x [number of hours over 40])
So his total hours gross pay per week will depend on the number of hours he works.
To find Malik Boykin's total gross pay per week, we need to consider two scenarios: when he works 40 or fewer hours, and when he works more than 40 hours.
Scenario 1: When Malik works 40 or fewer hours.
In this case, Malik is paid his regular hourly wage of $8.20 per hour.
Total gross pay = Regular hourly wage × Total number of hours
Total gross pay = $8.20 × Number of hours (40 or fewer)
Scenario 2: When Malik works more than 40 hours.
Malik is paid time and a half for any work over 40 hours. This means that for every additional hour he works beyond 40, he is paid 1.5 times his regular hourly wage.
Total gross pay = Regular earnings + Overtime earnings
Regular earnings = Regular hourly wage × Total number of regular hours (40)
Overtime earnings = Overtime hourly wage × Number of overtime hours
Overtime hourly wage = Regular hourly wage × 1.5
Total gross pay = Regular hourly wage × Total number of regular hours + Overtime hourly wage × Number of overtime hours
Total gross pay = $8.20 × 40 + ($8.20 × 1.5) × (Number of hours - 40)
Now let's calculate the total gross pay for each scenario:
If Malik works 40 or fewer hours:
Total gross pay = $8.20 × Number of hours (40 or fewer)
If Malik works more than 40 hours:
Total gross pay = $8.20 × 40 + ($8.20 × 1.5) × (Number of hours - 40)
Please provide the number of hours Malik Boykin worked in a week to calculate his total gross pay.
