Paige works at a department store and has a commission rate of 3 percent. Her sales for the quarter were $4,596. If she earns $50 per day and she worked 30 days in the quarter, what is the total amount she earned?

Her commission is 3% of $4,596: 0.03 × $4,596 = $137.88. Her daily pay for 30 days is $50 × 30 = $1,500. Add the commission and daily pay: $137.88 + $1,500 = $1,637.88, so the total is choice D.
