Question

a car salesman makes $445 per week plus commission. if during the week he sells a new van for $34,960 and earns 2.5% commission on the sale, how much money did he earn for the week

Answer 1

34960 × 2.5% = 1748 + 445 = 2,193 for the week (:

Answer 2

the answer is he makes 1,319. You multiply 34,960 but 0.025 so you can find 2.5% of 34,960 and then you add his weekly salary of 445 to 874 which is his commission on the sale.
