Answer 1

Answer:

a). 2700

b). 385.7

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

Given that, Adwoa received a commission of 20% on the bread she sold. In one week, Adwoa's commission was 540.

let x be the total cost of bread she sells during the week.

a). Thus, 20% of x = 540

x = 540 × (100/20)  ⇒ 2700 is the total cost of bread she sells during the week.

b). Now, her average daily commission is 2700/7 ⇒ 385.7
