Answer: She earned $5,520 on the sale.

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • Price of the house: $92,000
  • Commission: 6%

If we divide the percentage by 100, we obtain the decimal form.

Mathematically speaking: 6/100 =0.06

Finally, we have to multiply the decimal form of the percentage by the price of the house to obtain the commission in $.

  • $92,000 x 0.06 = $5,520

She earned $5,520 on the sale.
