Question

Roberto works in a home appliance store she is paid $195 per week and 3% on all sales over $1000 during one year her average weekly sales were $7800 about how much did she earned weekly? about how much did she earned during the year?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

she gets $195 per week plus 3% on sale OVER $1000.

ok. so, her weekly sales were $7800.

that means we need to calculate 3% of ... $6800 !

as she gets the commission only on sales that are over $1000.

6800 = 100%

1% = 100%/100 = 6800/100 = 68

3% = 1%×3 = 68×3 = $204

so, she earned $195 + $204 = $399 per week

and as there are 52 weeks per year, she then earned

399×52 = $20,748 per year.
