Question

So far this month Raul calculated that he will ear $40 in commission for his

$280 in product sales. If Raul would like for his commission to be $132, how much
does her need in sales?

Answer 1

Answer: $924

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that if Raul has a sale of $280 he'll earn $40 as commission. This shows that he earns 40/280 = 1/7 as commission.

If Raul would like for his commission to be $132, he'll have to make a sale of:

Let the sale be represented by a

= 1/7 × a = $132

a = $132 × 7

a = $924

He'll have to make a sale of $924
