Mary earns $28,000 a year. One week she grossed $658.00. She had sold $1673.19 worth of merchandise. what is the rate of her commission?

Her commission rate is 7.44%

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

The amount Mary earns annually = $28,000

The amount Mary grossed during a week = $658.00

The amount Mary had sold during the week to make the amount grossed during the week = $1673.19

Given that Mary makes $28,000 per year

Therefore;

The amount Mary earns per week = Amount earned per year/52

The amount Mary earns per week =  $28,000/52 = $538.46

The amount extra she made on commission = $658.00- $538.46= $119.54

The commission rate = Commission earned/(Amount of merchandise sold)×100

The commission rate = 119.54/1673.19 × 100 = 7.14%

Her commission rate = 7.44%

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.

if gloria has "carry over" minutes, (that is, any minutes paid for but not used in a month can be applied to her payment for minutes in the next month,) her total usage for the three months is: total minutes = 320 + 243 + 489 = 1052 minutes number of 200 minute blocks = 1052/200 = 5 r52 (that is 5 with a remainder of 52) rounding up the number of 200 minute blocks gives her usage for the three months as 6 blocks. the cost for six blocks is 6 x $25 = $150 she also has 200 - 52 or 148 carry over minutes if gloria pays each month and unused minutes are lost, applying the rounding up procedure to each month gives: first month usage of 320 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 second month usage of 243 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 third month usage of 489 minutes rounds up to 3 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 3 x $25 = $75 total payments for the three months are $50 + $50 + $75 = $175 get the plan with carry over minutes!
