(A) 58 (B) 64 (C) 66 (D) 70 (E) 78



Here,
she worked \(12\) hours extra and she was paid =\( 12 * 18\) = $\(216\) ( 1.5 times of $12 = $18)

for \(40\) hours she was paid regular rate = \(40 * 12 \)= $\( 480\)

Total $ received = \(480 + 216\) = $\(696 \)

For \(52\) hours her pay at the regular rate = \(\frac{696}{12}\) = \(58\) hours
