Answer:

The answer is c. $4668.30

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We know the salesperson sold 14% of the total $513000.00. To get the actual number he sold, we need to multiply 14 times 513000 and divide by 100.

  • Salesperson sales = 14*513000/100 = 71820

2) We also know the salesperson makes 6.5% commission on his sales. We know he sold 71820, his commission is:

  • Commission = 6.5*71820/100 = 4668.30

If you want to know what is the percentage of any given quantity, you need to multiply that percentage times the quantity and divide by 100.
