Question

Sandi works for Elizabeth Arden Cosmetics and earns $500 per week salary plus 4% commission on sales over $2,000. If Sandi sold $2,733 last week, what was her salary?

Answer 1

Step 1

Find the
`4\%` commission on sales

we know that

`4\%=(4)/(100)=0.04`

`\$2,733*0.04=\$109.32`

Step 2

Find the total salary last week

`total\ salary=\$500+\$109.32=\$609.32`

therefore

the answer is

`\$609.32`
