Charles works regularly 45 hours a week. Last week he worked 17 hours overtime. How many hours did he work?

Question

28 hours
38 hours
52 hours
61 hours
none

Answer 1

To find out how many hours Charles worked last week, you need to add his regular hours and his overtime hours together.

Regular hours = 45 hours/week Overtime hours = 17 hours

Total hours worked = Regular hours + Overtime hours
Total hours worked = 45 hours + 17 hours = 62 hours

Since 62 hours is not one of the answer choices given, the correct answer is "none."
