I agree, but I think it might be B. The average ticket makes a difference.

I’m a bit confused about how to split the sales between Card Red and Card Blue. I think it’s 65% for Red and 35% for Blue, but I hope I got that right!

If I recall correctly, we need to find the number of transactions too, since the $0.05 fee applies per transaction. That could change the total fees significantly.

I think we need to calculate the total credit card sales first, then apply the fees for each card type. I just hope I remember the right formulas!

I remember we did a similar question about calculating fees based on sales volume, but I’m not sure how to break down the percentages for each card.
