How much would Natalie make in a week in which she made $225 in sales? How much would Natalie make in a week if she made xx dollars in sales?

 Natalie make $ 367.5 in a week  in which she made $225 in sales .

Natalie make $ ( 300+x ) in a week  in which she made $ x  in sales .

Step-by-step explanation:

Base Salary of Natalie =  $300

Also, she gets 30% of the her total sales for the week.

If total sales in a week = $225

commission = 30% of $225

= $ ( 0.30 × 225)

= $ 67.5

Natalie got = Base Salary  + Commission

= $300 + $ 67.5

= $ 367.5

∴ Natalie make $ 367.5 in a week  in which she made $225 in sales .

If total sales in a week = $x

commission = 30% of $x

= $ ( 0.30 × x)

= $ 0.30 x

Natalie got = Base Salary  + Commission

= $ ( 300+x )

∴ Natalie make $ ( 300+x ) in a week  in which she made $ x  in sales .
