55. in 50 hrs he earns 2000 so in 1 hr=2000/50=40; and after the fix hrs he charges 1.5 times per hr. so chrge per hr after regular hr wil be 1.5*40=60;
extra money he earns after regular 50 hrs 2300-2000=300. so hr extra 300/60=5 so the answer will be 50+5=55;

Man earns 2000₹ in 50 hours.
So in 1 hour he earns = 2000/50 = 40₹
Given, additional payment for extra hours = 1.5*40 = 60₹
He needs to earn = 2300 - 2000 = 300₹
So extra hours needed to work = 300/60 = 5 hours
Total work hours per week = 55 hours
