Answer 1

The total amount of commission on these vehicles is 1686.

Explanation:

Given:

Miles earns a 6% commission on each vehicles he sells.

Today he sold a truck for 18500 and a car for 9600.

Now, to get the total amount of his commision on these vehicles.

Percent of commission Miles earns on each vehicles he sells = 6%.

He sold a truck for = 18500.

He sold a car for = 9600.

So, the total amount of vehicles:

`18500+9600=28100.`

Now, to get the total amount of commission on vehicles:

`6\%\ of\ 28100`

`=(6)/(100) * 28100`

`=0.06* 28100`

`=1686.`

Therefore, the total amount of commission on these vehicles is 1686.
