Her weekly sales is X dollars
10% as a decimal is 0.10
Total commission is 0.10X ( 10% times weekly sales)
You then need to add that to her base pay of $140.
The equation is: w = 0.10x + 140
162 plants, if 60% of the plants live you can set it up like this: 60/100 = X/270, to find X, you cross multiply and divide by 100
No, Lily is not correct. This is because 16+3 does not equal 18. So to find N, you take 18 and subtract 16.

If he got the jeans for 40% off he paid 60% of the cost for the jeans. With that you can setup an equation.
20 is 60% of what number
is signifies equals and of signifies multiplication
20 = 0.6*x
x = 20/.6
x = 33.33
The regular price of the jeans is $33.33
