$4,000?

Answer 1

Given :

Greg earns a salary of $300 per week plus an additional 6% commission on his sales.

To Find :

If his weekly salary increases by $50 and his commission increases to 7% how much will Greg earn if his weekly sales are $4,000.

Solution :

New weekly salary, S = $( 300 + 50 ) = $350 .

New commission on $4000 sales :

`C=(4000* 7)/(100)= \$280` .

Therefore, total earning T = S + C = $( 350 + 280 ) = $630 .

Hence, this is the required solution.
