Nick works forty hours per week, thirty-five of those hours are paid at the basic rate of pay (£10 per hour) and the remaining five hours are paid as over-time (£15 per hour).
What is the ratio of basic pay to over-time pay?

1:1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

if 10:15 when we divide both sides by 10 w get 1:1.5

the answer is 3/5

step-by-step explanation:

first divide 24 divided by 8 because that is the least common multiple

then divide 40 by 8

then you will get 3/5.
