Question

A salesperson sold a total of $6,400. If her rate of commission is 6%, what is her commission

Answer 1

Turn 6% into a decimal first and then multiply that decimal by the total. your work should look like this:

6% = 0.06

0.06 * 6,400 = 384

The answer is $384

Answer 2

$384.00

The way to get this is to turn the percent into a decimal ( 0.06 ) and multiply that by 6,400 :)
