Asalesperson works 40 hours per week at a job where he has two options for being paid. option a is an hourly wage of $27. option b is a commission rate of 5% on weekly sales. how much does he need to sell this week to earn the same amount with the two options?

$12,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A earnings=40*25=1,000

8/100x=1,000

.08x=1,000

x=1,000/.08

x=12,500
