Question

Sonia works at a sporting goods store. She earns $415 per week plus a 5.25% commission on her sales. One week, her sales are $2,200. What is her total income for the week?

Answer 1

The total income for the week would be $530.5

Explanation:

Income = $415 + Commission

Sonia made sales of $2,200. This means she will earn 5.25% of 2,200 as commission.

5.25% of 2200= 0.0525 x 2200 = 5.25 x 22 = $ 115.5

Therefore, total income of Sonia would be:

Total income = $ 415+ $ 115.5 = $ 530.5
