I was solving a python task but I didn't get it quite right, I guess. The task is

4.6 Write a program to prompt the user for hours and rate per hour using input to compute gross pay. Pay should be the normal rate for hours up to 40 and time-and-a-half for the hourly rate for all hours worked above 40 hours. Put the logic to do the computation of time-and-a-half in a function called computepay() and use the function to do the computation. The function should return a value. Use 45 hours and a rate of 10.50 per hour to test the program (the pay should be 498.75). You should use input to read a string and float() to convert the string to a number. Do not worry about error checking the user input unless you want to - you can assume the user types numbers properly. Do not name your variable sum or use the sum() function.

Here's my code:

h = input("Hours?")

r = input("Rate?")

h1 = float(h)

r1 = float(r)

def computepay(h1, r1):

    p = h1 * r1

    return p



if h1 <= 40:

    computepay(h1, r1)

else:

    g = float(h1 - 40)

    g1 = r * 1.5 * g

    pay = computepay(h1, r1) + g1

    print (pay)

input()

My output is 551.25
Help me, please. I'm completely lost

The error is in the part

pay = computepay(h1, r1) + g1

Your are passing the full h1 to the function and not the relevant part 40.0.

pay = computepay(40.0, r1) + g1
