Question

Mae Ling earns a weekly salary of $390 plus a 8.0% commission on sales at a gift shop. How much would she make in a work week if she sold $4,300 worth of merchandise?

Answer 1

She would make $734 in a work week if she sold $4,300 worth of merchandise.

Explanation:

First, you should calculate the amount she would receive on comissions by multiplying the amount she sold for 8%:

$4,300*8%=$344

Now, you have to add the weekly salary plus the amount she receives for the comission on sales:

$390+$344=$734

According to this, the answer is that she would make $734 in a work week if she sold $4,300 worth of merchandise.
