Her total sales was $3695.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Osmin had a gross pay of $624.86 last week
- She earns $12.85 per hour
- She earns 3% commission on all sales
- She knows she worked 40 hrs last week
She wants to know what was her total sales
Assume that her total sales is $x
∵ Her gross pay = $624.86
∵ She earns 12.85 per hour plus a 3% commission on all sales
∵ She worked for 40 hrs last week
∵ Her total sales was $x
- Put all of these in an equation represents her gross pay
∵ Her gross pay = her rate per hour × the number of hours + 3% of x
∴ 624.86 = 12.85 (40) + 3% (x)
∴ 624.86 = 514 +
x
∴ 624.86 = 514 + 0.03 x
- Subtract 514 from both sides
∴ 110.86 = 0.03 x
- Divide both sides by 0.03
∴ 3695.33 = x
∴ Her total sales = $3695.33
Her total sales was $3695.33
