Solve using 2-step equations.

You work as a salesperson at Cutco, and earn only commission. You earn 30%
commission on everything you sell. Your bills this month are $1,800 and you
also want to put $500 into your savings.

Answer:

$7666.7

Explanation:

1800 + 500 = 2300. That means that 30% = 2300. If u divide both sides by 3 then 10% = 766.67 times that by ten and then that will equal $7666.7
