Question

Larry is paid 8.5% of all sales plus 4.25% of sales over $6800. Find Larry's gross pay from total sales of $12,200.

Answer 1

Answer:

• $1266.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Larry's gross pay is:

• 12200*8.5/100 + (12200 - 6800)*4.25/100 =
• 1037 + 229.50 =
• 1266.50

Answer 2

We can find Larry's gross pay,

→ 12200×8.5/100+(12200-6800)×4.25/100

→ 1037 +229.50

→ 1266.50

Hence, $ 1266.50 is the solution.
