    A shop tech earns a base PayPal $15.68 per hour, plus "time-and-a-half" for overtime (time exceeding 40 hours). If he work 44.5 hours during a particular week, what is his gross pay?

    Gross pay = Regular Pay + Overtime Pay

    Calculate regular pay:
    Regular Pay = 40 hours * $15.68 = $627.20

    Calculate overtime pay
    Overtime pay = (44.5 - 40) * 1.5 * $15.68
    Overtime Pay = 4.5 * 1.5 * $15.68
    Overtime Pay = $105.84

    Gross pay = $627.20 + $105.84
    Gross pay = $733.04
