Question

#6) Mary earned a weekly salary of $398 for the first 30 weeks of the year. She changed jobs and was paid a weekly salary of

$712 for the last 22 weeks of the year. What total gross pay did Mary earn for the year?

Answer 1

total gross pay Mary earned = $27,604

Explanation:

1 year = 52 weeks

First 30 weeks Mary gets paid $398 per week and the last 22 weeks she gets paid $712 per week.

Total Mary earned = (30 x 398) + (22 x 712) = 11,940 + 15,664 = $27,604
