The same salesman from the previous question earns a raise after working there for five years. What is his new flat rate salary (before commission) if he made $1000 in sales, still has his 15% commission on the amount in dollars of sales he makes, and took home $450 for the week?

When he made $1000 for the week, his 15% commission is;


(15)/(100)of1,000=150

It is known that he too $450 home for the week, then;

His new flat rate salary is $450 - $150 = $300
