Answer 1

You also need help with grammar MATHS? its math not maths

Answer 2

Time and 1/2=Hourly wage/2=1/2 time + Hourly wage

Double time= Hourly wage X 2

Triple time= Hourly wage X 3

Answer 3

Well the pay is computed just as it sounds:

Time and a half: That is your regular salary plus 1/2 i.e: if you make $16 an hour the half would be $8 so time + 1/2 (16+8) that would be $24hr

Double time: based on $16 would be 16+16

Triple time: again based on $16 16+16+16!  

Rather simple!

Good luck

Answer 4

time and a half means you get paid your normal amount plus half.  

you get paid 5 bucks normally so time and half is 5 + 2.5 = 7.5 per hour.

double time = 10 bucks

triple = $15

work 40 hours normally but you did 2 hours of overtime during the week and 5 hours on saturday.  

over time is time and a half, saturdays is double time.

40x5 = 200

2 x 7.50 = 15

5 x 10 = 50

total pay for week is $265
