Answer 2

Answer:

The total earning of the month be $4325 .

Option (c) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Max has a monthly salary of $1,100 and also earns 7.5% commission on his sales.

If Max had $43,000 in sales last month .

7.5% is written in the decimal form.

$=\frac{7.5}{100}$

=0.075

Commission Max earns = 0.075 × Total sales of the last month

                                       = 0.075 × 43000

                                       = $ 3225

Total earning of a month = Monthly salary + Commission earning

                                          = $1100 + $3225

                                          = $ 4325

Therefore the total earning of the month be $4325 .

Option (c) is correct.
