He earns $16.50 for one hour of overtime.
He worked 4 hour of overtime.
I figured this out by first finding out how much he earns in one overtime so that equals $16.50. Then you need to divide $66.00 by $16.50 to get 4.

Answer:

Ken worked 4 hours overtime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ken earns $11 for an hour in his regular pay.

He receives time-and-a-half for overtime =  $11 + (11/2) = 11 + 5.50 = $16.50

Ken worked 40 hours plus overtime and he made $66.00 in his overtime.

So he worked overtime = $66.00 ÷ 16.50 = 4 hours

Ken worked 4 hours overtime.
