Juan Ramirez sells suits in a major department store on weekends. He earns a commission of 5% on the first 10 suits he sells. If he sells more than 10, he earns another 3% on the additional suits. Last weekend Juan sold 13 suits priced at $250 each. What was his commission?

First 10 suits :
10 × $250 = $2500
5% × $2500 = $125
$2500 + $125 = $2,625

3 other suits :
3% × $250 = $7.5
3 × $7.5 =$22.5

Total commission :
$2,625 + $22.5 = $2,647.5

John's commission was $2,647.5.
