Susan Nicholson sells home furnishings. She is paid an 8% commission on the first $2,000-worth of sales, 10 % on the next $2,500, and 15% on all sales over $4,500. What is her commission on $4,910-worth of sales?

Answer 2

8% of the first 2000 is 160
10% on the next 2500 is 250
That brings us up to 4500, and then Susan makes 410 more in sales. 15% of 410 is 61.5
All in all, what is the total of Susan's commission? Simply add the total of each part.
160 + 250 + 61.5 = ?
