OA is D. Unable to understand why.
The employees of Smith Enterprises received wage increases ranging from 30 cents to 87 1/2 cents per hour. What was the minimum wage increase for a 40-hour week?
(A) $12.00
(B) $23.00
(C) $34.80
(D) $35.00
(E) $35.20
I think the question is straight forward.
Answer has to be $12.00
30 cents is the minimum and question is asking for 40 hours week. So 30 * 40 = 1200 cents which is 12 dollars.
Here the answer has to be A.
Answer choice D is for maximum. 30 * 87.5 = 3500 cents = 35 dollars.
