Answer: $400,000
Explanation:
Let the salesperson's total amount of sales, in dollars, for this year be represented by x.
Therefore, 60% of x = $240,000
60/100 × x = $240,000.
0.6 × x = $240,000..
x = $240000 / 0.6
x = $400,000
Therefore, the salesperson's total amount of sales, for this year is $400,000.
