We need to separate his total earnings out into the different categories:

Category 1 (2%): 30,000
Category 2 (3%): 60,000-30,000 = 30,000
Category 3 (5%): 92,000-60,000 = 32,000

To calculate a percentage we multiply by that percentage divided by 100.
Now we can work out the commissions:
1) 30,000*0.02 = $600
2) 30,000*0.03 = $900
3) 32,000*0.05 = $1600

Adding these together, we get $3100

Last year Billy weighed 75kg. This year he weighed 90kg. With what percentage did his weight increase. SHOW ALL WORK!!!
polet [3.4K]

well let's round. 90= 100, 75=80 that is how I face it. now 80 is 1/5 of 5/5= 100. so as a (%) we would sort it like:::: it is 80% out of +100 so he must have grown around 13%-16% due to him being 75kg in the past.

Liula [17]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a percentage proportion to find the value of x.

\frac{12}{x} = \frac{60}{100}

Now we cross multiply:

100\cdot12=1200\\\\1200\div60=20

Hope this helped!
