Gerald earns $60.00 per week selling magazine subscriptions. For each subscription he sells, he earns 15% on his total sales (S). If he wants to earn at least $360.00 next week, how much does he need to sell?

A.

S > $2,800

B.

S > $45

C.

S > $300

D.

S > $2,000

Gerald must sell at least $2000 dollars worth of subscriptions next week.

Step-by-step explanation:

$ = 60.00 + (S * 0.15)

First, plug the 360.00 into the $ variable.

360.00 = 60.00 + (S * 0.15)

Then, subtract 60.00 from both sides

300.00 = (S * 0.15)

Finally, divide both sides by 0.15

S = 300.00/0.15 = 2000
