The total value of the furniture that was sold by Dennis is 3,500 dollars.

What is the percentage?

The amount of something is expressed as if it is a part of the total which is a hundred. The ratio can be expressed as a fraction of 100. The word percent means per 100. It is represented by the symbol ‘%’.

Dennis made an extra $245.00 for selling furniture.

Let the cost of the furniture be x.

Let the total value of the furniture be x + 245.

The extra $245.00 was 7% of the total value of the furniture he sold.

0.07(x + 245) = 245

         x+ 245 = 3500

                   x = 3255

Then the total value of the furniture is (3,255 + 245 =) $3,500.
