Question

A salesperson sells $2200 in merchandise and earns a commission of $286.
Find the commission rate. Write your answer as a percentage.

Answer 1

Answer:

13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Commission rate = commission / value sold

= 286/2200

= 13%

Answer 2

The answer is 13% and here is how you get it-

First of all the commission rate= commission/value sold.

So you need to divide 286 by 2200. Your answer to that would be 0.13 and just convert that into a percentage. That would give you 13%.
