Answer:

Commission of the employee = 16%

Explanation:

It is given that:

Amount kept by gym = $42

Amount given to employee = $8

Total fee = 42 + 8 = $50

Commission rate =
(Commission)/(Total\ fee)*100

Commission rate =
(8)/(50)*100

Commission rate = 0.16 * 100 = 16%

Therefore,

Commission of the employee = 16%
