Answer:

$1050

$54,600

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are looking at calculating two things. We want to calculate the amount of commission made in a week and the amount made in a year.

Firstly, to calculate the amount of commission she made last week, we simply find the percentage.

Mathematically, this is equal simply to:

14% of $7,500 = 14/100 * 7500 = $1050

She made a commission of $1050 last week

Now, we are told this is the average she makes per week. We now want to calculate how much she makes per year. To do this, what we do is to multiply what she had made in a week by the number of weeks in a year.

The number of weeks in a year is 52. The amount she made is just 52 * $1050 = $54,600

A crew of highway workers paved 1/2 mile in 1/4 hour. If they work at the same rate, how much will they pave in one hour?

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest approach is to realise that one hour is 3 times longer than

20

minutes. The longer the time, the more they will pave.

You could also use the 'unitary method' where you find out how much they pave in ONE minute (divide by

20

) and them multiply by

60

to find how much in one hour.
