    Overtime rate is $8.4375 per hour

    Explanation:

    Given the information:

    regular salary of $900 a month over time rate = 1.5 regular rate

    As we all know that, overtime pay rate is more than the regular pay rate because that person work more than her/his standard hours

    In this situation, the standard hours is 40 hours per week.

    => Total Number of Hours worked in a month

    = 40 x 4

    = 160 hours

    => Regular rate per hour

    = $900 / 160 = $5.625 per hour

    => Overtime rate

    = $5.625 x 1.5 = $8.4375 per hour

    Hope it will find you well.
