Answer:

Mr. Robins commision rate is 15%.

Explanation:

Formula


Percentage = (Part\ value* 100)/(Total\ value)

As given

Mr robbins earns a commission on each airfare he books.

At the end of the day,he had booked $208.60 worth if airfare and earned $31.29.

Here

Part value = $31.29

Total value = $208.60

Put in the formula


Percentage = (31.29* 100)/(208.60)


Percentage = (312900)/(20860)

Percentage = 15%

Therefore the Mr. Robins commision rate is 15%.
