Originally without the 10% extra, both have 100%. since the question stated that the first salesperson have 10% more, the percentage of his paycheck will be a total of 110%. on the other hand, the second salesperson will have only 100%. the question then stated that when both oaychecks are added together, it will give a total of $1075.
so now you need to find what is 1 % 1% represents $(1075/210)
the first salesperson have 110%, so you (1075/210) × 110% = $563. 0952381 round off to the nearest cent so it will become $563.10 the first salesperson paycheck is $563.10
the second salesperson paycheck 100%. so you.... (1075/210) × 100% = $511.9047619 =$511.90 therefore the second salesperson paycheck is $511.90.
