Respuesta :

he gets 3% up to 10,000 
and 5% over 10,000

10500 - 10000 = 500

10000 * 0.03 = 300

500 * 0.05 = 25

300 + 25 = 325 total

The correct answer is B

Answer:

Option B $325 would be correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Frank gets commission on any time-share sale up to $10,000 = 3%

and for any amount over $10,000 = 5%

Last Saturday he sold a time-share for $10,500.

as per given commission rates he gets 3% commission on 10,000

= 3% of 10,000 = 0.03 × 10,000 = $300

on the rest amount (10,500 - 10,000 = $500) he gets 5% commission.

= 5% of 500 = 0.05 × 500 = $25.00

Total commission he made, selling the time-shares $300 + $25 = $325
