A sales representative is paid a base salary of $350 a month. she is also paid a commission of 20% on all sales. If she sells $14,000 worth of merchandise in one month, what is her paycheck for the month?

Respuesta :

First, let's calculate her commission by taking 20% of $14,000 using a tule of three:

This way,

[tex]x=\frac{14000\cdot20}{100}\Rightarrow x=2800[/tex]

Now, let's add up her commission and her base salary:

[tex]2800+350=3150[/tex]

Therefore, we can conclude that her paycheck for the month is $3,150
