Final answer:

Reggie earned $30,600.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reggie earned a 2.5% commission on each car he sold. We can find out how much he earned by multiplying the total number of cars sold by the commission rate. In this case, Reggie sold 6 cars and earned a commission of 2.5% on each car. So his total

Actual earnings = 0.15 x $204,000 = $30,600

earnings can be calculated as:

Total earnings = Number of cars sold x Commission rate

Total earnings = 6 x 2.5% = 6 x 0.025 = 0.15

Now, we can find the actual amount Reggie earned by multiplying his total earnings by the total amount of sales:

Actual earnings = Total earnings x Total amount of sales
