Olivia was just hired in an office, and her starting salary is $59,000. She gets 13 sick days, and 14 paid vacation days. Her contract includes 245 8-hour days. If she takes all her sick and vacation days, what is she paid hourly? [Round your answer to the nearest cent]

Sagot :

To solve this problem firs we have to calculate hou much is she paid per day so we divide the starting salary by the number of days so:

[tex]\frac{59000}{245}=240.816[/tex]

now we can rest the total number of days minus the days she was sick so:

[tex]245-13=232[/tex]

So now we calculate the new salary:

[tex]232\cdot240.816=55869.312[/tex]
