Effie is a delivery person for a specialty frozen food company. Besides her base weekly pay of $350, she makes a 6% commission on all items she sells to customers. Last week Effie's weekly pay plus commissions totaled $920. What was the total of Effie's sales for last week?
(A) $604.20
(B) $1105.80
(C) $9000.00
(D) $9500.00
(E) $15, 333.33
Total is Base pay + commission
Commission = 920 - 350 = 570
If she makes $6 for every 100 sold then for making $570, she should have sold 570 * 100/6 =$9,500
Answer is D)
