606.25

12.5 * 1.5 = 18.75

12.5 * 2 = 25.

(12.5 * 35) + (18.75 * 5) + (25 * 3) = ?

Well, well, well, let's calculate Lee Lu's earnings, shall we? First, let's start with her regular pay for the week. She worked 35 hours at $12.50 per hour, so that gives us $437.50.

Now, let's move on to Saturday. She worked 5 hours, which means she worked one hour for time-and-a-half (1.5x) and four hours at regular pay. If we do the math, that's 1.5 x $12.50 = $18.75, plus 4 x $12.50 = $50.

Next up is Sunday, the day of double-time pay. She worked 3 hours, so that's 3 x 2 x $12.50 = $75.

Now, let's add up all of Lee Lu's hard-earned cash. $437.50 for regular pay + $18.75 for Saturday + $75 for Sunday equals a grand total of $531.25 in gross pay. Ka-ching!

To calculate Lee Lu's gross pay, we need to determine her regular pay for the week, her overtime pay for Saturday, and her double time pay for Sunday.

First, let's calculate her regular pay for the week:
Lee Lu worked 35 hours during the week and is paid $12.50 per hour. Therefore, her regular pay for the week is:
Regular Pay = 35 hours * $12.50/hour = $437.50

Next, let's calculate her overtime pay for Saturday:
Lee Lu worked 5 hours on Saturday, which means she qualifies for overtime pay during her Saturday hours. Her overtime rate is time-and-a-half, which is 1.5 times her regular rate. So, her overtime pay for Saturday is:
Overtime Pay (Saturday) = 5 hours * $12.50/hour * 1.5 = $93.75

Finally, let's calculate her double time pay for Sunday:
Lee Lu worked 3 hours on Sunday, which means she qualifies for double time pay during her Sunday hours. Her double time rate is twice her regular rate. So, her double time pay for Sunday is:
Double Time Pay (Sunday) = 3 hours * $12.50/hour * 2 = $75.00

To calculate her gross pay, we will add her regular pay, overtime pay for Saturday, and double time pay for Sunday:
Gross Pay = Regular Pay + Overtime Pay (Saturday) + Double Time Pay (Sunday)
Gross Pay = $437.50 + $93.75 + $75.00 = $606.25

Therefore, Lee Lu's gross pay is $606.25.
