  300-200=100
  200/40=5
  5*25/100=6.25
  100/6.25=16
  40+16=56hours total

• a total of 56 hours he worked..
  RS 200. for normal work in a week for 40 hours.
  Rs 100. for his over time work..
  in normal hours he is getting Rs 5. per hour..i.e,200/40=5.
  in over time he wil get Rs 6.25 per hour ..i.e, 5*0.25=6.25.
  therefore he worked 16 hours over time to get Rs 100. extra..i.e, 16*6.25=100
  so..40+16=56.

• His basic pay = Rs.200 and he work 40hrs for a week
  so his basic rate is 200/40 = 5rupees/hour
  His overtime work rate = (5 + (5*25%)) = 6.25rupee/hour.
  Now Total paid amount is 300 in which 200 rupees is for normal work and 100 rupees for overtime duties.
  So total hours of overtimes in a certain week is 100/6.25=16hrs
  So total working hours for that week is 40+16=56hrs

• Basic pay = Rs 200 for 40 hrs or Rs 5 per hour
  OVERTIME = 5/25=1.25 TOTAL 6.25
  EXTRA WORKING HOURS = 100/6.25=16
  ANSWERS = 56 HOURS

• the extra pay he got is 100rs.
  let it is for x hrs...
  the amount of pay he get per 1hr of overtime is 40hr ------- 200
  1hr----------5
  overtime 1hr=5(1+ 25/100)=25/4
  so,25/4 * x = 100
  x=16..
  total working hrs for that week are 40+16=56hrs...

• basic pay for 40 hrs=Rs.200
  then for 1 hr basic pay=Rs.5 (200/40=5)
  then 60*5=300,
  which means he worked for a total of 60 hrs.

• for 1 hr it paid Rs 5.
  now, total over time amount for 1 hr = (5 + 25% of 5) = Rs 6.25
  hence Rs 200 paid as normal rate.
  rest of the Rs 100 is the overtime paid at the rate of 6.25 per hr
  so, 100 = n(6.25)
  n=16
  total hours 40+16 =56

• basic pay for 40 hours =200
  1 hour pay=200/40 =5 rupees
  1 hour basic rate is = 5*25/100 =5/4 => 1.25
  above from basic rate so we need to add= 1.25+5 =>6.25
  total rupee=300
  basic rupee work =200
  left rupee=300-200 =>100
  for 100 rupee he need to work= 100/6.25 => 16
  
  work on basic pay= 40 hours
  
  so overtime hours =40+16 =>56 hours
