Answer:

Option C. $798

Explanation:

we know that

The total hours worked the last two weeks ( 80 hours) multiplied by $7 per hour plus the 10% commission on her sales ($2,384) is equal to the amount of money that Sandy earned for those two weeks

Remember that


10\%=10/100=0.10

so


80(7)+0.10(2,384)


\$560+\$238.4=\$798.40
