Question

A DVD player costs $250 and TV costs $600. With a 19% commission rate, how much

Answer 1

In this question, we're trying to find how much a sale clerk earns from a sale.

We know that the DVD player costs $250

We also know that the TV costs $600

The sales clerk has a 19% commission rate, this is the money that they make from the sale.

To find the money the sales clerk got from the sale, we have to add the total spending and multiply it by 0.19

250 + 600 = 850

850 · 0.19 = 161.5‬

This means that the sales clerk made $161.5‬0 in commission from the sale.

Answer:

$161.50‬
