Question

A dealer paid $10,000 for a boat at an auction. At the dealership, a salesperson sold the boat for 30% more than the auction price. The salesperson recieved a commission of 25% of the difference between the auction price and the dealership price. What was the salesperson's commission?

A)$750
B)$1,750
C)$3,250
D)$5,500

Answer 1

the difference is 30% of 10000 = 3000
now 25% of 3000 = (25/100)* 3000= 750.
so Answer is $750
