Answer:

If a sales person wants to earn $600 in 1 week they have to make $1000 dollar sale or a bunch of sales that can make $1000

Explanation:

Because $600 - $450 gives you $150, and $150 is 15% of her sales to if we were to divide $150 by 0.15 ( 15% in decimal for ) we would get $1000 meaning 15% of 1000 is 150.

Hope this helps :)
