Question

Robin Hartman earns $600 per week plus 3% of sales over $6,500. Robin's week sales are $14,000. How much does Robin earn

Answer 1

$825

Explanation:

Given that :

Weekly earning = $600 plus 3% of sales over $6500

If weekly sales = $14000

How much will Robin earn

Robin's earning will be:

Flat weekly pay + 3% of amount over 6500

$600 + 3%(weekly sales - 6500)

$600 + 0.03(14000 - 6500)

$600 + 0.03(7500)

$600 + $225

= $825
