Answer:
3c+4
Step-by-step explanation:
When distributing a problem with 2 of the same signs, all you have to do is leave it the way it is. Basically pretend it's not there at all and you should the answer
1. men to women = 1:2, 1+2 = 3 people total, 3 = denominator, women = 2 = numerator, so 2/3 women
2. plain to milk = 3:2, 5 total, 5 = denominator
a. plain = 3 = numerator, 3/5 plain
b. milk = 2 = numerator, 2/5 milk
3. children to adults = 3:5, total = 8 = denominator
a. children = 3 = numerator, 3/8 children
b. adults = 5 = numerator, 5/8 adults
4. blue to red to black = 5:1:3, total = 9 = denominator
a. red = 1 = numerator, 1/9 red
b. blue = 5 = numerator, 5/9 blue
5. 2/3 female, 3 total monkeys, so 2 female and 1 male, female to male = 2:1
6. 1/2 female, 2 meerkats total, so 1 female and 1 male, female to male = 1:1
Jean Gray's total earnings over the past week was $3,925
Since Jean earns 4% for the first $2,00 business she does, she earns a base commission of = $2,000*0.04 = $80
Now, we need to find how of additional sales did Jean do over and above the base of $2,000. This is calculated as follows:
Total Sales = 3,925
Base sales =2,000
Add-on sales = 3,925-2,000 = 1,925
For the $1,925 sales, Jeans earns 8% commission, her commission for this will be 1,925*0.08 = $154
So, the total commission = $80 + $154 = $234
Her commission for the week was $234
