Question

You earn 5% on all monthly sales plus a salary of 1200. If your sales total 54,000 what is your gross pay

Answer 1

Your gross pay is 3,900

Explanation:

First, divide total sales by 100%: (When multiplying and dividing you don't need the percentage sign)

54,000 / 100 = 540

Multiply by 5%:

540 x 5 = 2,700

Add numbers together to get gross pay:

2,700 + 1,200 = 3,900

Answer 2

50*112 = 16800

Your commission is $16,800.00

5% of 54,000 is 54000 * 0.05 = 2700 + 1200 = 3900

Gross pay is $ 3,900.00

I hope this helps
