hello

The commission is 5% on everything she sellsIf she sold $1650.00First you have to find her commission 100%=16505%=x100•x=1650•5100•x=8250—— ———100 100x=82.5(this is her commission)Now you have to add $82.5 to total she earns in the week.$400.00+ $82.5 = $482.5 The Vanessa’s total pay last week was $482.5
Have a nice day
