You can put this solution on YOUR website!
That depends upon several factors including how many days there are in the month.
You'll get .3 * 87 per day that you deliver, or $26.10 each day
If you're looking at February, there are 4 weeks of 7 days, but you don't deliver on the 7th. So, 4 weeks * 6 days * $26.10 = $626.40
You could average it out by multiplying the number of days by 6%2F7.
Most accurate way is to figure out which day you're not delivering, take the number of, say, Sundays from the number of days in the month, and then multiply by the daily rate.
