Answer:
C. $649.60
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Jill earns a salary of $425.00 per week, plus a commission of 20% on all sales. Last week she sold $1,123 worth of goods.
First of all, we will find 20% of $1,123 to find the commission earned.
\(\text{Amount of commission}=\$1,123\times \frac{20}{100}\)
\(\text{Amount of commission}=\$1,123\times 0.20\)
\(\text{Amount of commission}=\$224.60\)
The Jill's income would be $425.00 plus $224.60.
\(\text{Jill's income}=\$425.00+\$224.60\)
\(\text{Jill's income}=\$649.60\)
Therefore, Jill's income would be $649.60 and option C is the correct choice.
