Question

Dave makes 20% commission on all of his sales for the week. Last week Dave sold $1000. How much did Dave make?

Answer 1

Dave will make $200 for the sales of $1000.

Explanation:

Given are:

Rate of commission of Dave = 20%

Total sales = $1000

The amount that Dave will make will be obtained by calculating the 20% of total sales.

For that we will multiply the sales with 0.20

`Commission = 20\%\ of\ Sales\\= 20\%\ of\ 1000\\=0.20 * 1000\\= 200`

Hence,

Dave will make $200 for the sales of $1000.
