Answer 10

You know why it can't be anything lower than 720 right?

Answer 11

maybe?

Answer 12

If she makes $9 and hour, and she worked 80 hours in those two weeks.
9 * 80 = 720
So 720 is the lowest she could earn.

Answer 13

Since she made $2,744 in sales and she earns 15% commission on her sales, you'll have to calculate 15% out of 2744.

Answer 14

You already know that salary equals 80*$9=$720
You need to calculate the amount of commission she receives, which is
\(2744*15\%=$(2744*\frac{15}{100})=?\)
Add the commission to the base salary will give you what she should earn in those two weeks.
