Zorluk: KolayWages, Salaries, and Commissions

A car wash attendant earns a base salary of $400\$400 per week, plus a 10%10\% commission on any detailing packages they sell. If the attendant sells $800\$800 worth of detailing packages in one week, what is their total gross pay for that week?

Cevap:Total gross pay: $【480】\$【480】

Cevap

480
The correct total gross pay is calculated by finding the commission (10%10\% of $800=$80\$800 = \$80) and adding it to the weekly base salary ($400\$400). The sum is $400+$80=$480\$400 + \$80 = \$480.
