Question

The salesperson earned a commission of $1110.20 for selling $7930 worth of paper products. Find the commission rate

Answer 1

Commision = $1110.20

Selling= $7930

x is the commission rate

`7930\cdot(x)/(100)=1110.20`

Then we isolate the x

`x=(1110.20\cdot100)/(7930)=14\text{ \%}`

ANSWER

The commission rate is 14%
