Question

Cindy gets paid a 5% commission for selling furniture. If Cindy's goal is to earn $4,000 per month in commission checks, how much furniture does she need to sell per month to reach her goal?

Answer 1

so the answer is 20 that is it

Answer 2

In order to figure out how much she needs to sell, you'll have to use multiplication.

Start by identifying the percent she receives, which is 5%.

Convert this to decimals to make multiplying possible, and this becomes .05

Multiply .05 x 4,000 to get your answer, which is 80,000.

Therefor, your final answer is "$80,000 worth of furniture."
