Anna is paid $15.00 per hour.She works a long 12 hour shift, the last 4 hours being paid a double time pay rate.What is Anna's wage before tax?

To calculate Anna's wage before tax, we need to consider her normal pay rate and her double time pay rate.

1. First, calculate her earnings for the first 8 hours of her shift. She is paid $15.00 per hour, so for 8 hours, she earns 8 *$15.00 = $120.00.

2. For the last 4 hours of her shift, she is paid double time. This means her pay rate for these hours is 2 * $15.00 =$30.00 per hour. So for 4 hours, she earns 4 * $30.00 =$120.00.

3. Finally, add these two amounts together to find her total wage before tax. $120.00 (from the first 8 hours) +$120.00 (from the last 4 hours) = $240.00.

So, Anna's wage before tax is $240.00.
