Alexander is a stockbroker. He earns 14% commission each week. Last week, he sold $7,500 worth of stocks. How much did he make last week in commission? If he averages that same amount each week, how much did he make in commission in 2011?

$54,750

Step-by-step explanation:

7,500 × 0.14 = 1050 made in commissions per week

the amount of weeks in a year differs so we should convert to days

1050/7 = $150 made per day

since we have to find how much he makes in a year we multiply 150×365= 54,750

he made $54,750 in commission in 2011
