abigail works at a skateboard shop. she earns $8 per hour and $1 commission for each sale she makes. from june 1st to june 5th, she saves all her money and doesn't spend anything.
each day,from june 1st to june 5th, abigail worked 3 hours
.on june 1st,abigail made 2 sales.
.on june 3rd, abigail made 3 sales.
.on june 5th,abigailmade 1 sale, and went home 1 hour early.
if abigail had $195 at the end of june 5th, how much money did she have on the morning of june 1st?
$77
$118
$120 or
$126
3 hrs/day * 5 days = 15 hours * $8/hr = $120
sales made: 6 = $6
total earnings: $126
195-126 = 69
So, the explanation isn't quite accurate. It said she worked 3 hours each day, yet went home an hour early on June 5th. So, she didn't really work 3 hours each day at all.
So, revising her earnings down by $8, sh e only earned $118.
$195-$118 = $77.
thank you
To find out how much money Abigail had on the morning of June 1st, we need to calculate her earnings per day and then subtract the amount she earned from June 1st to June 5th.
Let's break down the calculations day by day:
On June 1st, Abigail worked 3 hours and made 2 sales. Her earnings for that day can be calculated as follows:
Earnings from working hours = 3 hours * $8 per hour = $24
Earnings from sales = 2 sales * $1 commission per sale = $2
Total earnings on June 1st = $24 + $2 = $26
On June 2nd, Abigail didn't work, so her earnings for that day are $0.
On June 3rd, Abigail worked 3 hours and made 3 sales. Her earnings for that day can be calculated as follows:
Earnings from working hours = 3 hours * $8 per hour = $24
Earnings from sales = 3 sales * $1 commission per sale = $3
Total earnings on June 3rd = $24 + $3 = $27
On June 4th, Abigail didn't work, so her earnings for that day are $0.
On June 5th, Abigail worked 2 hours (instead of the usual 3) and made 1 sale. Her earnings for that day can be calculated as follows:
Earnings from working hours = 2 hours * $8 per hour = $16
Earnings from sales = 1 sale * $1 commission per sale = $1
Total earnings on June 5th = $16 + $1 = $17
Now, let's calculate the total earnings for all the days from June 1st to June 5th:
Total earnings = $26 + $0 + $27 + $0 + $17 = $70
Since Abigail had $195 at the end of June 5th, we can subtract her total earnings from that amount to find out how much money she had on the morning of June 1st:
Money on the morning of June 1st = $195 - $70 = $125
Therefore, Abigail had $125 on the morning of June 1st. The closest option from the given choices is $120.
