Michael o'hara earns $14.74 per hour as a carpenters apprentice. from monday through friday he starts work at 8: 00 am he takes a half hour lunch break every day. if ends work at 4: 00 pm monday through thursday how late must he work on friday to have total pay of $574.86 for the week?

till 5:30 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael works from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm also he takes 30 minutes lunch break so, total hour work per day = 7 hours 30 minutes.

Also, he earns $14.74 working for 1 hour.

So, earning of Michael on Monday = 7 hours × $14.74 = $110.55

This is continued till Thursday So, $110.55 × 4 = $442.2

Means Michael has to earn $574.86 - $442.2 = $132.66

Thus, the number of hours he had to work = $132.66 ÷ $14.74 = 9 hours

Also, Michael works 7 hours 30 minutes daily before Friday, Hence on Friday he has to work 1 hour 30 minutes more i.e. till 5:30 pm
