If you earn $308 for one weeks work, and for every 35 hours worked you get $7 and for anything over 35 hours worked you get $10.50, how many hours did you work in one week?

given that

total earn= $308

$7 every hours up to 35 hours

over 35 hours then $10.50 every hours

so. 

35 hours earning  = $7x35 

=$245

remaining earning = 308-245

= $63 ( that is over 35 hours earning)

over hours= $63/$10.50

over hours= 6 hours

Total hours = 35+6

=41 hours
