For first 2500 Magazine copies, 2500*0.15 or 2500*15/100=25*15=$375
For Each copy after 2500, he recieves $0.25 which amounts to 500*$0.25= $125

Total amount earned for 3000 copies is $375+$125= $500

Zack sold 3000 copies
He gets $0.15 for 2500 and $0.25 for additional copies sold.
Therefore
His earnings = (0.15×2500)+(0.25×500)
= $500

So Option C is correct

For first 2500 he earns 2500*.15 that is 25*15=375

Then for the next 500 he earns 0.25

So it should be (.25)*500 =125

Total earning 500$ (option C)


Bunuel
Zack receives $0.15 for each of the first 2,500 weekly magazine copies he sells, and $0.25 in royalties for each additional copy sold. If he sold 3,000 copies last week, how much money did he earn in dollars?

A. $1125
B. $675
C. $500
D. $375
E. $125
