Question

Roland works in a local factory. He receives 95 cents for each of the first 100 units he

produces in a day, $1.25 for each unit between 101 and 300 he produces in a day, and
$1.55 for each unit over 300 he produces.
How much pay will Roland earn if he produces 375 units in a day?

Answer 1

375 units = 100 + 200 + 75

100 units at $0.95 = $95

200 units at $1.25 = $250

75 units at $1.55 = $116.25

$95 + $250 + $166.25 = $461.25
