Last month Maria worked 150 hours. Her friend, Sara, suggested that this month Maria should work 15% more hours than she did last month so she can save for Christmas gifts. If Maria takes Sara’s advice, how many hours will Maria work this month?

Step-by-step explanation:

So, ahem if I am even close to giving you an accurate answer then the logical part of me in my brain is still working. If she worked 150 hours and she were to take Sarah's advice to work 15% more. We first need to know what 15% of 150 is to find that we can do 10 percent of 150 which we put 150. and we move that decimal over one place to the opposite of the side right. What do we get well we get 15.0 and we let that be. Then since we still need to find the other 5% of 150 we can take the 15.0 and divide by 2. We can do 14÷2=7 we can add that to the 15.0, and get 22, now we put that aside then we can do the 1÷2=.5. We can then do 22+.5=22.5. then we have to do 150+22.5=172.5

since it is 15% more than 150. Sorry if this is not very understandable,

incorrect, and confusing I tried. I hope that I helped with something. I try to trick you a bit I hope that you catch on. :)

where did you get them? if you picked from the grass, is is probably poisonous.

step-by-step explanation:

$2416.6

step-by-step explanation:

per hour = $ 25

total work time = 35

commission = 15%

total she has to make = $ 4,500

let she sold x dollar products

so her commission will be 15 % of x

now

total = weekly basic pay + commission

4500= (25*35) + 15 % of x

4500=875 + * x

4500-875 =   * x

3625= * x

multiplying wwith 100 on both sides gives

36250 = 15 x

now

x =  

x= $2416.6
