john worked from 8;15 to 2;30 from monday to friday if he is paid twenty four dollars per hour calculate his monthly salary please help me
To calculate John's monthly salary, we first need to determine the total number of hours he worked from Monday to Friday.
Step 1: Find the number of hours worked each day.
First, let's convert the given time format to a 24-hour format.
John worked from 8:15 to 2:30 on each day, which is a total of 6 hours and 15 minutes each day.
Converting 15 minutes to hours: 15 minutes ÷ 60 minutes = 0.25 hours.
So John worked for 6 hours + 0.25 hours = 6.25 hours each day.
Step 2: Calculate the total number of hours worked from Monday to Friday.
As John worked for the same number of hours each day, multiply 6.25 hours by 5 days (Monday to Friday).
Total hours worked from Monday to Friday: 6.25 hours/day × 5 days = 31.25 hours.
Step 3: Calculate John's monthly salary.
Given that John is paid $24 per hour,
John's monthly salary: $24/hour × 31.25 hours = $<<24*31.25=750>>750.
Therefore, John's monthly salary is $750.
To calculate John's monthly salary, we need to determine the total number of hours he worked during the week and multiply it by his hourly wage.
The given information is that John worked from 8:15 to 2:30 from Monday to Friday. Let's calculate the number of hours he worked each day:
Monday:
- Start time: 8:15 AM
- End time: As John worked until 2:30 PM, we need to convert this to AM/PM format: 2:30 PM = 2:30 + 12:00 = 14:30
- The total time worked on Monday can be found by subtracting the start time from the end time: 14:30 - 8:15 = 6 hours and 15 minutes
Similarly, we can calculate the hours worked for each day:
Tuesday: 6 hours and 15 minutes
Wednesday: 6 hours and 15 minutes
Thursday: 6 hours and 15 minutes
Friday: 6 hours and 15 minutes
Now, let's calculate the total number of hours John worked during the entire week:
Total hours = Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday + Thursday + Friday
= 6 hours and 15 minutes + 6 hours and 15 minutes + 6 hours and 15 minutes + 6 hours and 15 minutes
= 24 hours and 45 minutes (Note: We have 60 minutes in an hour, so it's easier to express as hours and minutes)
To convert the total hours and minutes to a decimal, we divide the minutes by 60 and add the result to the hours.
Total hours (decimal) = 24 + 45/60
= 24.75 hours
Now, we can calculate John's monthly salary:
Monthly salary = Total hours (decimal) x Hourly wage
= 24.75 hours x $24/hour
= $594
Therefore, John's monthly salary would be $594.
