A surgical technician works 1½ hours in the preoperative care area, 3 ½ hours in the operating room and 2 ¾ hours in the recovery room. The technician makes $15.75 per hour. How much is the technician’s gross salary for that day

Respuesta :

First we must add up all of the hours that were worked:


[tex] 1.5+3.5+2.75=7.75hours [/tex]


Now since the technician makes $15.75/hour, we must multiply by the number of hours they worked:


[tex] 15.75*7.75=122.06 [/tex]


So now we know that the surgical technician made $122.06 in gross salary for that day.
