Answer:
$62,500.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the top seller this month will win a trip to the Bahamas for a week, paid in full. Last year's winner exceeded the goal by 125%. This year goal is $50,000.
To find the least amount that one should make to win a trip to the Bahamas, we will find 125% of 55,000.
[tex]\text{One should make}=\frac{125}{100}\times 50,000[/tex]
[tex]\text{One should make}=125\times 500[/tex]
[tex]\text{One should make}=62,500[/tex]
Therefore, to win a trip to the Bahamas one should make at least $62,500.
