Answer:
Total amount of CD sales was $750,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
one million CDs were sold at $5/CD.
1,000,000 × $5 = $5,000,000
Donny gets 15% of the sales, so he'll receive the amount of CD sales as:
$5,000,000 × 15/100 = $50,000 × 15 = $750,000.
Optional:
If you add both of the multiplied values, 1,000,000 × 5 + 550,000 × 6
= $5,000,000 + $3,300,000
= $8,300,000
so, 15% of it would be $1,245,000.
if you calculate both separately and then add them, you'll still get $1,245,000.
I hope this'll help.
