She worked 40 reg hrs, 1/2 (time and a half hrs) Time and a half 1/2 hr=30 min,, at time and a half it= 3/4 or .45 min. She also worked 9 hrs at double time-- 9*2=18 reg hrs, SO.. 18+.45+40=58.45 * 13.50 = 789.075 In Gross earnings. Rounded= $789.08

CORRECTION.. .5= .75 which is the same thing as 45 minutes worked.
40x + .5x(1.5) + 9x(2) = 58.75 * 13.50 = 793.125 OR $793.13
CHECK 793.125/58.75 = 13.50
