Bond Maths Book 2 - wrong answer?? Help!!

Post by TatianaZ »

I am stuck on Paper 10, Q 25-27 in Bond Maths 10-11+ Book 2, can anybody help?

For any sales above £15 000 Frances gets 5% commission.
Here is a table of sales for the last three years. How much commission does she get in each year?
Sales
Year 1 - £15 000
Year 2 - £25 000
Year 3 - £45 000


The answers are: Year 1- £350, Year 2 - £850, Year 3 - £1850

I just can't get these answers (and I am in sales! lol), so started to think that there must be an error somewhere...

Can anybody help, please? Thank you!

It's a misprint. They mean any sales above £8000. Then the answers work.
