| 324 | P1 | for a process to work out daily pay on a weekday, eg \(8 \times 6\ (= 48)\) or a process to work out the number of hours of pay for weekdays, eg \(6 \times 5\ (= 30)\) or the number of hours of pay for Saturday and Sunday, eg \((4 + 3) \times 1.5\ (= 10.5)\) or a process to work out rate of pay for Saturday or Sunday, eg \(8 \times 1.5\ (= 12)\) |
| P1 | for a process to work out the total pay from Monday to Friday, eg \(\text{``}48\text{''} \times 5\ (= 240)\) or \(\text{``}30\text{''} \times 8\ (= 240)\) or for a process to work out the total pay from Saturday and Sunday, eg \(\text{``}10.5\text{''} \times 8\ (= 84)\) or \(\text{``}12\text{''} \times (4 + 3)\ (= 84)\) or a process to work out the total number of hours of pay, eg \(\text{``}30\text{''} + \text{``}10.5\text{''}\ (= 40.5)\) | |
| P1 | for a complete process, eg \(\text{``}240\text{''} + \text{``}84\text{''}\) or \(\text{``}40.5\text{''} \times 8\) | |
