Question

Denise earns $4,500 per month plus 4% commission on her sales. One month she had sales of $50,000. What were her total earnings? • a. $50,000 • b. $2,000 • c. $6,500

Answer 1

$6500

Explanation:

Given data

Monthly Earnings= $4500

Commission= 4%

Sales= $50000

Let us find the amount of the commission

=4/100*50000

=0.04*50000

= $2000

Since the monthly earning is $4500, hence the total earning is

=2000+4500

=$6500
