all work 40 hours a week.
11 then earn 45*40=1800 per week....wow.
98-11 then earn (87*30) = 2610 per week
sum = add them up.

The given information tells us that 11 employees receive a wage of $45 per hour. Therefore, the number of employees earning $30 per hour is equal to the total number of employees (98) minus the 11 employees earning $45 per hour.
Number of employees earning $30 per hour = Total number of employees - Number of employees earning $45 per hour
= 98 - 11
= 87
Now, let's calculate the total pay for each group of employees.
For the 11 employees earning $45 per hour:
Weekly pay for each employee = Wage per hour * Number of hours worked per day * Number of workdays per week
= $45 * 8 * 5
= $1,800
Total pay for 11 employees = Weekly pay for each employee * Number of employees earning $45 per hour
= $1,800 * 11
= $19,800
For the 87 employees earning $30 per hour:
Weekly pay for each employee = Wage per hour * Number of hours worked per day * Number of workdays per week
= $30 * 8 * 5
= $1,200
Total pay for 87 employees = Weekly pay for each employee * Number of employees earning $30 per hour
= $1,200 * 87
= $104,400
Finally, let's calculate the total amount the business pays its employees each week:
Total pay = Total pay for 11 employees + Total pay for 87 employees
= $19,800 + $104,400
= $124,200
Therefore, the business pays its employees a total of $124,200 each week.
