The working hours per day: 8 hours

 The price paid for work per hour: 2.40

The total number of working days per week: 5

Assuming, the worker had worked on the usual working hours the amount he has earned:

 (working hours per day X number of working days per week) = 8 X 5 = 40 and in 4 weeks = 40 X 4 = 160 hours 160 X 2.40 = Rs 384

Given,

 The total amount earned in 4 weeks = Rs 432

Taking the value= Rs 432 - Rs 384 = Rs 48

Amount paid for overtime = 3.20

Thus, to calculate how many hours the worker worked overtime, it will be extra amount earned/ over rate per hour = 48/ 3.20= 15 hours

 Thus, The man works for a total of 160 hours + 15 hours overtime, making it a total of 175 hours to earn Rs 432.

Answer:

175 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

man get rupees per hour =2.40

Total rupees in 5days =2.40×8

=19.2

Total rupees in 4 weeks =19.2×5

=96

so the men do work =160hours in 4 weeks

the men earns =432 rupees

so remaining money =432-384

=48

over time =48/3.20

=15

Therefore total hours =15+160

=175 hours
