Erica earns $11.00 per hour and works a 40 - hour workweek. She is paid time and a half for every hour worked over 40 hours during a week. Erica earned $60 5.00 last week. How many overtime hours did she work?

Base pay = $11 x 40 or $440

$605 - 440 = $165 in overtime
Overtime is 1.5 (1 and a half times) her usual salary

11 x 1.5 = $16.50

$165 ÷ $16.50 = 10 hours of overtime.
