A small business employs 98 people. All of the employees work for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. Eleven of the employees receive a wage of $45 an hour and the rest receive $30 an hour. In total, how much does the business pay its employees each week?

Answer 1

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.
