Question

Blue Ray's computer sales totaled $59,500 last month. She receives a commission rate of 15% on all sales. What commission did she earn? *

Answer 1

Answer: $8,925

Explanation:

Convert 15% to decimals. You can do this by dividing by 100.

`(15)/(100)=0.15`

Now, take the total amount of the sales and multiply it by this decimal.

`59,500*0.15=8925`
