Answer:

the rate of commission is 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the rate of commission is shown below:

Rate of commission is

= Commission received by the broker ÷ Sale value of the home

where,

The Commission received by the broker is $13,200

And, the sale value of the home is $165,000

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the rate of commission is

= $132,00 ÷ $165,000

= 8%

Hence, the rate of commission is 8%
