From the given question we already know that Francois earns a weekly salary of $475 and also a commission of 5.5% on the total amount of goods sold in the week. Francois sold goods worth a total of $700 in the week. Now we have to calculate first the amount of commission earned from the sales of goods. Commission earned = (700 * 5.5/100) dollars = 38.5 dollars. So francois earns 38 dollars and 50 cents as commission for the goods sold during the week. Total earning of Francois in the week = (475 + 38.5) dollars = 513.5 dollars So the total earning of Francois during the week is 513 dollars and 50 cents.
