Answer 2

Answer: 37 albums

Explanation:

Question wants to know the number of albums sold last month.

He is paid $200 base rate every month so we need to remove this to find out the total he made from album sales:

= 644 - 200

= $444

If he made $444 from album sales when he got $12 per album, the total number of albums sold is:

= 444 / 12

= 37 albums
