Possible answers
A)
$311.50
B)
$343.00
C)

D)

Answer 2

Are you saying for the 9 hours he worked over the 40 hours, he gets 1.5x more?

Answer 3

If so, which I'm sure, the answer is then C.

Answer 4

40 * 7= $280.00
$10.50 * 9 = $94.50
$280.00
+$94.50
--------
$374.50

Answer 5

$7 * 40 =280
$7 * 1.5$ because he worked over time
$10.5
10.5*9=94$
94$ + 280$ = 374.5$
choice C is right
