Given:
Maria makes $6.00 an hour plus 5% commission for telephone sales.
Working time = 8 hours
Sales = $600.00.
To find:
The amount that Maria make yesterday.
Solution:
We know that,
1 hour = $6.00
8 hour = 8 × $6.00 = $48.00
Commission = 5% of telephone sales
Sales = $600.00.
[tex]Commission=5\times 6[/tex]
[tex]Commission=30[/tex]
Total amount that Maria make yesterday is the sum of total hourly changes plus commission.
[tex]\$48.00+\$30.00=\$78.00[/tex]
Therefore, the required amount is $78.00.
