Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Given the following question:

Total cost is $725
15% Marcus makes in commission.

In order to find the answer, we have to find 15% of $725 and that number will be the total in commissions he earned that week.


(15*725)/(100) =15*725=10875/100=108.75

Marcus makes "$108.75" or option C in commissions last week.

Hope this helps.
