Mae Ling earns a weekly salary of $335.

She also earns 5.0% commission on sales. If she sold 4200 worth of merchandise, she would get 4200 x 5/100 = 210$

Totally, she earns 335 + 210 = 545$

Hope this helps!

$545

Step-by-step explanation:

Commission is basically the percentage of the profit made that the salesperson gets to keep. The weekly salary is a fixed amount, so that won't change.

Here, Mae Ling sells $4200 worth of merch, which is the profit made, so the commission will be 5% of that:

5% * 4200

Remember that % is just "out of 100", so 5% = 5/100:

(5/100) * 4200 = $210

Add this to the salary:

335 + 210 = $545

She would make $545.
