  • Sold worth=19866

Commission:-


\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 0.02(19866)


\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 397.3

Gross pay:-

  • 2212+397.3
  • 2609.3$[/tex]

Answer: $2,609.32

====================================================

Work Shown:

2% = 2/100 = 0.02

2% of $19,866 = 0.02*19866 = 397.32

Dora earned $397.32 in commission on top of the base monthly salary of $2,212

Her total monthly pay is 2212+397.32 = 2,609.32 dollars

----------------

Optional section:

If you wanted to use a bit of algebra here, then the equation is

y = 0.02x+2212

Plug in x = 19866 and you should get y = 2609.32
