The easiest way, I think, is to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, then multiply by 3.
3 1/2 = 7/2
7/2 · 3 = 21/2
now just change the improper fraction back to a mixed number by dividing and putting the remainder into fraction form
21/2 = 10 1/2
You could also multiply the whole number by 3 and the fraction by 3, ending up with 9 3/2, but then have to convert the improper fraction into a mixed number
3/2 = 1 1/2
then add the numbers together
9 + 1 1/2 = 10 1/2
either way works, whatever is easiest for you.
Draw per week = $1,300
Draw for four weeks = 1300 x 4 = $5,200
Four week sales amount = $186,900
6% commission on sales = 0.06 x 186,900 = $11,214
<span>Thus the amount equal to mike’s commission minus the
draw = 11,214 – 5,200 = $6,014</span>

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Latisha correctly verified that x² + x - 12 = (x - 3)(x + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
In the problem, each student was to give their explanation of why the statement above is correct. In order to know if this statement is correct, you can also simply multiply the terms after the equal sign.
(x - 3)(x + 4)
Use foil method to multiply.
x² - 3x + 4x - 12
Combine like terms.
x² + x - 12
You can also find out if the statement is correct is multiplying and adding the numbers together.
-3 * 4 = -12
-3 + 4 = 1
So, Latisha is correct because her explanation verified the statement above.
