求问一道GRE数学题Workers at panies X and Y are paid the same base hourly rate. Workers at pany X are paid 1.5 times the base hourly rate for each hour worked per week in excess of the first 37, while workers at pany Y are paid 1.5 times the base hourly rate for each hour worked per week in excess of the first 40. In a given week, how many hours must a pany X worker work in order to receive the same pay as a pany Y worker who works 46 hours?X和Y的员工工作的base rate不是一样的吗?咋不能直接直接46-40+37?麻烦回答详细点,文科生,真的不知道怎么理解.谢谢啦 英语

【答案】 这是一道很简单的数学题,你应该是没看懂题才不会做的.
题目意思是：在一周中X工作37小时和Y工作40小时的时薪是一样的,多出来的算加班薪水,加班薪水是平时的1.5倍.
设每小时1块钱基本工资：40+(46-40)*1.5=37+(x-37)*1.5 x=45
或者这么算：y多工作出来的6小时,x同样需要6小时（加班工资一样）；那y工作40小时需要x工作37+(40-37)/1.5=39h,一共需要45h.
