Paolo sells furniture for an upscale department store. He earns $16 per hour plus a 10% commission on his sales. Last week he worked 20 hours and sold furniture valued at $17,500.

How much did Paolo earn for his hourly wages?

Answer 1

2070

Explanation:

16x20 for hours

17500x0.1 for commission

then u add them

Answer 2

16x20=320
10% of 17,500=1,750
320+1,750= 2,070
2,070/20=135
Therefore Paolo made $135 per hour.
