Question

3. Jada's sister earns a commission. She makes 3.5% of the amount she sells. Last week, she sold $7,000 worth of furtniture. How much was her commission? (don't forget the $)

Answer 1

The commission made was $245 from the sales

Here, we want to get the value of the commission made

From the question, we are told that the commission is 3.5% of the amount sold

We have this as;

$\frac{3.5}{100}\times\text{ 7000 = \ 245}$
