Answer:

5.96 x 36 = 214.56.

286.08 - 214.56 = 71.52

71.52 divided by 8.94 = 8.

He worked 8 additional hours.

Answer:

The worker worked about 8 hours overtime.

Step-by-step

First we figure out how much they made without overtime.

Multiply 5.96 x 36 and you would get 214.56

Then we figure out how many hours he worked overtime

Multiply 8.94 times 8 and you would get 71.52

Then take 214.56 and add 71.52, you would get 286.08, the answer is 8 hours overtime.
