Answer:
Ella's normal hourly pay is $12 per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that the Ella's Normal hourly pay = $x per hour
Over hourly pay = 1.5 times ( Normal pay)
= 1.5 ( x) = $ 1.5 x
⇒Ella earns $1.5x in 1 hour of overtime.
So the amount she earns in 4 hour of overtime = 4 times (per hour pay)
= 4 ( $1.5x) = $ 6 x
The amount Ella earned in 4 hours of over time = $72.00
According to the question:
$ 6 x = $72.00
or, x = 72/6
=12
or , x = $12
Hence, Ella's normal hourly pay is $12 per hour.
