Question

Deb is paid on commission at Denver Mattress. She receives a 17% commission on all mattresses she sells. Last week she earned $382.50. What was the total value of the furniture she sold?

Answer 1

£2250

Explanation:

£382.50 = 17%

£382.50 / 17 = £22.50

£22.50 = 1%

£22.50 x 100 = £2250.00

£2250 = £100%

Answer: £2250
