Hi to all,
I am stuck on what should be a simple word problem. I am drawing a blank on how to solve this one. Any help with helping me understand how to solve this one, would be greatly appreciated. I know it must have a simple solution, but I am not seeing it at this time. Thank you all very much.
You are calculating payroll. Your company has 45 employees who work 40 hrs at $17 per hour. 14 employees each worked 6 hrs of overtime at 50% above their hourly rate. What percentage of the total payroll that week was overtime pay?
