Step-by-step explanation:

Ellen gets paid for 8 hour work on each day = $18.00 per hour

over 8 hour work each day Ellen was paid = 18.00 × 1.5

                                                                       = $27.00 per hour

Ellen worked from 8 am to 8:30 pm on Friday and took 1-hour unpaid lunch break.

Time of work on Friday = 12.5 - 1 = 11.5 hours

Ellen worked over 8 hours = 11.5 - 8 = 3.5 hours

for 8 hours she was paid = 18 × 8 = $144

for overtime she was paid = 3.5 × 27 = $94.5

Ellen earned on that day = 144 + 94.5

                                         = $238.50

Ellen earned on Friday $238.50
