#$23.77# and total gross pay is #$810.3#

Explanation:

Heidi's hourly pay = #$15.85#

Number of hours worked this week = #47.5# hours

So, number of over time hours worked = #47.5 - 40# = #7.5#hours

(normal working days are #5# days in a week with #8# hours per day. This makes normal working hours in a week = #8xx5 = 40# hours).

Pay per hour during overtime = 1.5 times normal pay = #1.5xx15.85# = #$23.77#

Gross pay = normal pay per week + Overtime work pay

which = #15.85xx40 + 23.77 xx 7.5# = #634+178.3# =#$810.3#
