Question

Kevin earned $11,700 commission for selling my house calculator is 6/100 of the selling price what was the selling price of the house

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the selling price of the house:

`11,700=(6)/(100)x`

Solving for x:

`\begin{gathered} (6)/(100)x=11,700 \\ 6x=100*11,700 \\ x=(100*11,700)/(6)=(1,117,000)/(6) \\ x=195,000 \end{gathered}`

Answer:

The selling price of the house was $195,000
