A salesperson works 40 hours per week at a job where he has two options for being paid. Option A is an hourly wage of ​$18. Option B is a commission rate of ​8% on weekly sales. How much does he need to sell this week to earn the same amount with the two​ options?

$9,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A:

In a week he will earn 720 since 18 × 40 = 720

Option B:

(x=the amount of weekly sales)

8x ÷ 100=720

8x=72,000

x= 72,000 ÷ 8

72,000 ÷ 8 = 9,000

The salesperson needs to make a weekly sales of $9,000 to earn the same amount with both options.
