Hotel Vikki and Zach work part-time in a hotel.
Vikki works on the reception desk.
Her normal rate of pay is £9.65 per hour.
She is paid double for working on a bank holiday.
One week she works for 30 hours in total.
26 of these hours are at her normal rate of pay.
The other hours are on a bank holiday.
Work out her total pay for the week.
Explanation:
We need to calculate the total salary for the week.
It is said that she worked 30 days a week. 26 of which are at the usual rate and, accordingly, 4 at the holiday rate. Therefore:
26*£9.65=£250.9 - payment at the usual rate for 26 hours;
4*(£9.65*2)=4*£19.3=£77.2 - payment for 4 holiday hours;
£250.9+£77.2=£328.1.
For a week, Vikki will be paid £328.1.
