My daughter works for $5.85 an hour, she had to work two shifts where she was told were time and a half. She wanted to know how much that was an hour. Thanks

1 1/2 * hourly rate
5.85 is hourly rate so 5.85 + 2.925 = 8.775 per hour
$8.77 or 8.78 per hour for time and a half

It's the $5.85 plus half of that which equals $2.925, which would generally be rounded up to $2.93, so the total would be $8.78 an hour

$ / hour = r (your rate)
time = t (in hours)
total = rt
Time and a half means you get t + 1/2*t which = 3/2t so total = 3/2t*r but this also = 3/2r*t because multiplication is associative meaning time and a half at rate is equal to rate and a half at time. Rate and a half is $8.775/hr. Hope this makes sense.
