Question

Williams makes a commission of 6% on everything he sells. if he sold a computer for $764.00, how much money would he make in commission

Answer 1

If he sold the computer for $764.00, the money he will make on the commission would be 6% of his sales, i.e. 6% of $764.00

`\text{commision=percentage commission }* sales\text{ price}`

`\begin{gathered} \text{commission}=(6)/(100)*764 \\ =(6*764)/(100) \\ =(4584)/(100) \\ =\text{ \$45.84} \end{gathered}`

The amount he would make as the commission is $45.84
