Answer:

Commission = $375

Total earnings = $600

Step-by-step explanation:

He gets 3% of any sale he makes above %5500 which means his commission received on this sale is;

= 3% * $12500

= $\frac{3}{100} *$ $12500

= 3* 125

= $375

This means his total earnings for the week will be the basic wage plus his commission

$225 + $375

= $600
