Mae Ling earns a weekly salary of $370 plus a 7.0% commission on sales at a gift shop. How much would she make in a work week if she sold $4,900 worth of merchandise?

Question

I REALLY need some help please.

Answer 1

Earnings = $370 + commission on $4900 of sales

= $370 + $4900 * 7 %

7 % is found using a factor of 7/100

= 4370 + $4900 * (7/100) = 713

$713 is the answer that you seek.
