The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.
Gracie earns 17.25/h for a 37.5h week, plus extra for overtime.
For one hour she earns $17.25
For 37.5h she earns = 37.5h x 17.25
= $646.87
The total money she earns = $646.87 + overtime pay
During store inventory, she worked 48.5h. Her gross earnings were $1,471.88.
