To find the salesman's earnings for the week, we need to calculate 1 3/4 percent of the value of the goods he sold.
Step 1: Convert 1 3/4 percent to a decimal.
To convert a percent to a decimal, divide it by 100.
1 3/4 percent = 1.75/100 = 0.0175
Step 2: Multiply the decimal by the value of the goods sold.
Earnings = 0.0175 * £5960.00
To calculate this, you can multiply the decimal by the value of the goods sold using a calculator or by hand.
0.0175 * £5960.00 = £104.30
Therefore, the salesman's earnings for that week were £104.30.
