Answer:

$11,250

Step-by-step explanation:

Yvonne earns a fixed amount of $1,850 per month and want to earn $2,300. The difference is

[tex]\$2,300-\$1,850=\$450.[/tex]

This difference is her commission. If she earns the commission of 4% on the amount of goods that she sells, then

$x - 100%

$450 - 4%

Make a proportion:

[tex]\dfrac{x}{450}=\dfrac{100}{4}\Rightarrow 4x=45,000\\ \\x=\dfrac{45,000}{4}\\ \\x=\$11,250[/tex]

Yvonne must sell $11,250
