Question

(9.) A machinist is hired at $7.20 per hour.
(a) On a particular day, he clocked in at
8.00 a.m. and clocked out at 3.45 p.m.
Find his wage for that day.
(b) At the end of a one-year probation period,
his wage will increase by 27.5%. If the
machinist successfully completes the
apprenticeship,
(i) what will his pay be per hour?
(ii) what will his pay be per week, if he
starts with a forty-hour week?
​

Answer 1

now from the above question we can find the machinist worked for 7hr 45min

now 7(3/4)(7.20)=37.8$

now we know his wage rate increased for 27.5%

(I) it means his wage rate increased to9.18

(ii)now 40(9.18)=367.2$

I hope it is correct if not please send me real answer
