Final answer:

To find out how much you earned during your 6-hour shift, you need to calculate your total sales and your total commission earned.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much you earned during your 6-hour shift, you need to calculate your total sales and your total commission earned.

  1. First, add up the prices of the shoes: $99.99 + $199.99 + $219.99 + $189.99 = $709.96
  2. Next, calculate your commission by multiplying your total sales by 10%: $709.96 * 0.1 = $70.996 (rounded to the nearest cent, $71.00)
  3. Finally, calculate your total earnings by adding your commission to your hourly wage for 6 hours of work: $71.00 + ($12.50 * 6) = $149.00

Therefore, you earned $149.00 in total during your shift.

Answer:


6 * 12.5 = 75

The total price in shoe sales equals $709.96

10% of $709.96 is $71 after rounding up.

$71 plus $75=$146

answer-$146
