Question

Floyd is an aspiring music artist. He has a record contract that pays him a base rate of $200, a month, and an additional $12, for each album that he sells. Last month he earned a total of $644

Write an equation to determine the number of albums (a) Floyd sold last month.
Find the number of albums Floyd sold last month.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Rate = 200

Additional amount = 12 per album

To find number of albums

644 - 200 = 444

So 444 ÷ 12 = 37

He sold 37 albums last month
