Given:

Salary is $ 34500.

Commission is 13 %.

Good manufacturing pays Frank Turner a $720 monthly salary.

The amount of commission is,


\begin{gathered} 13\text{ \% of 34500} \\ (13)/(100)\cdot34500=4485 \end{gathered}

Commission is $ 4485

It gives the total amount,


720+4485=5205

The gross pay is calculated as,


\begin{gathered} \text{Gross pay=}\frac{Total\text{ amount}}{\text{pay periods}} \\ =(5205)/(12)\ldots\ldots\ldots\text{.. Since pay period is monthly} \\ =433.75 \end{gathered}

Gross pay is $433.75
