Question

A car salesperson earns 30 percent of the profit for each car sold. If a salesperson earns $300 from the sale of a car, what was the profit?

Answer 1

x=$10000

Explanation:

sorry if its wrong lol

$800 = $300 +.05(x), x being the amount that must be sold

Subtract 300 from both sides

$500= .05(x)

Divide by .05
