We know Lois's gross pay is

... gross pay = $245 + 12%×sales

And we are given gross pay. So, we can substitute the given information and solve for sales.

... $1320 = $245 + 0.12×sales

... ($1320 -245) = 0.12×sales

... sales = $1075/0.12 = $8958.33

Lois's amount of total sales last week was $8958.33.

Answer:

her total sales was $8958.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x was the amount of her total sales.

It has been given that she is paid 245 per week plus a 12% commission on all sales.

12% commission on all sales which is x should be equal to 0.12x.

Hence, her weekly payment is given by

245 + 0.12 x

However, in the question it is given that her gross pay was $1320 last week. Therefore, we have the equation

[tex]245+0.12x=1320[/tex]

Subtract 245 from both sides

[tex]0.12x=1075[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.12

[tex]x=8958.3[/tex]

Therefore, her total sales was $8958.3
