Ruby has a monthly salary of $1,800 and also earns 6% commission on her sales. If Ruby had $37,000 in sales last month, what were her total earnings for the month?

a.$1,908

b.$2,220

c.$2,328

d.$4,020

Verified Answer :

6% of her $37,000 in sales: 37,000 x 0.06 = 2220

Salary $1,800 + $2,220 (commission) = $4,020

So her total earnings: $4,020
