I am not sure I am getting the answers right cause my textbook is shocking, It has the wrong answers in the back.
But anyway, can anyone figure this out?
I am crap at math.

Louie works as a plumber’s assistant and is paid $13.80 per hour. He is paid a digging allowance of $13.50 per day if he has to dig trenches and $15.80 per day if he works on open sewers. Find his pay in a week in which he works 50 hours, digs on three days and works on an open sewer for two days.


thanks :)

Open Trench Days Payment

15.80*2+20*13.80=$307.60
(Paid $15.80 open sewer allowance on each day)

Digging Day Payment
13.50*3+30*13.80=$454.50
(Paid $13.50 digging allowance on each day)
Total payment: $454.50+$307.60

Therefore Louie is paid $762.10
