Question

All salespeople in the Ace Department Store receive $400 per week plus a 6% commission. If

you sold $4520 worth of goods in a week, what would be your total income?

Answer 1

Explanation:

4520 = 100%

1% = 100%/100 = 4520/100 = $45.20

6% = 1%×6 = 45.20×6 = $271.20

so, in total I would earn

400 + 271.2 = $671.20

in that week.
