Answer:
The commission rate is of 12%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Commission rate:
The commission rate is given by the commission value multiplied by 100% and divided by the value of merchandise sold.
In this question:
$252 in commission for selling $2100 in merchandise. So
252*100%/2100 = 12%
The commission rate is of 12%.
The table you drew under the question is exactly the right way to start.
-- Make a second column, next to the 6 and 7. This column will be
the actual number of each thing.
-- You know that there are 42 marbles, so write '42' in the box
next to the 6, on the 'Marbles' line.
Now you need to figure out what to write in the 'Stones' line, next to the 7.
-- Look at the 'Marbles' line. There's a 6 and then a 42.
Ask yourself: " Self ! What does the 6 have to be multiplied with to get 42 ?"
-- Whatever the answer is, drop down to the 'Stones' line,
and multiply the 7 by the same number.
The product is the total number of stones, and it goes in the box.
