Question

Ramona works in a clothing store where she earns a base salary of $140 per day plus 14% of her daily sales. She sold $600 in clothing on Saturday and $1200 in clothing on Sunday. How much did she earn over the two days?

Answer 1

Answer:

$532

Step-by-step explanation:

Ramona worked for two days. So she would have already earned $280.

And she also earns 14% of $600 from the first day, and 14% of 1200.

14/100 * 600/1 = 8400/100 = $84

14/100 * 1200/1 = 16800/100 = $168

$280 + $84 + 168 = $532

Altogether, Ramona earned $532 in the total of two days! Wow that's more money then I get per month lol.

Hope this helps :D

Answer 2

Answer: $ 532

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Ramona works in a clothing store where she earns a base salary of $140 per day plus 14% of her daily sales.

She sold $600 in clothing on Saturday and $1200 in clothing on Sunday.

To find : Earning in two days.

Total sales she did in 2 days = $600+$1200 = $1800

Then, her total earning for 2 days = 2 x( Base salary)+ 14% of (Total sales)

= 2 x ($140) + (0.14) ($1800)

= $(280+252)

= $ 532

Hence, she earned  $ 532 over the 2 days.
