STEP 2

First, we need to calculate the total hours of overtime/holiday worked by the employee. We can do this by adding up the overtime/holiday hours worked on each day.

$Total\, overtime\, hours =2 +$

STEP 4

Calculate the total overtime hours.
$Total\, overtime\, hours =2 +4 =6\, hours$

Now that we have the total overtime hours, we can calculate the total overtime/holiday pay. This can be done by multiplying the total overtime hours by the overtime/holiday hourly rate.
$Total\, overtime\, pay = Total\, overtime\, hours \\times Overtime\, hourly\, rate$

STEP 6

Plug in the values for the total overtime hours and the overtime hourly rate to calculate the total overtime pay.
$Total\, overtime\, pay =6 \\times \$22.50$
