Ace autos sell cars and pay sue each month as follows -salary of £1410 -26% of the total profit the company makes from her sales - a £390 bonus if she sells at least 16 cars the table shows information about the cars she sold last year total cost to the company- £473,500 total income for the company - £549,000 number of months when she sold at least 16 cars - 4 work out sues total pay for the year

Sue's total pay of year will have three parts

1) Fixed Salary for 12 months

  one month salary = £1410

  so 12 month salary = £1410 x 12 = £16920

2) 26% of total profit

   Total cost to the company- £473,500

   Total income for the company - £549,000

   Profit =  Total income for the company - Total cost to the company

             =  £549,000 - £473,500 = £75500

    Sues income from profit = 26% of £75500 = (26 × 75500)/100 = £19630

3) Bonus if Sue sells at least 16 cars

   Given number of months when sue solds atleast 16 cars = 4

   So bonus income = 4 × 390 = £1560

Adding the three above parts

Sue's total pay for the year = £16920 + £19630 + £1560 = £38110

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
