Question

Justin earns 5% commission on his real estate sales. One year, his total commission was 35,750. What were his sales for that year?

Answer 1

The sales for the particular year was: 715000

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the percentage formula for finding the total sales.

Given

Commission Rate = 5%

Commission = 35750

Let x be the sales

So,

$Commission=Sales * 5\%\\35750=x * \frac{5}{100}\\35750=x * 0.05\\x = \frac{35750}{0.05}\\x= 715000$

The sales for the particular year was: 715000
