Question

If a salesman earns $450 for every $50,000 sale, what is his commission rate?

0.9%
15%
1.5%
9

This would be the commission rate because 50000 multiplied by 0.9 is 450.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate = 50000*(x/100) = 450

Multiply both sides by 100

50000 * x = 450*100

50000* x = 45000

Divide by 50000

x = 45000/50000

x = 45/50 = .9%
