Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is $22,50.

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to solve this exercise we must begin by analyzing the information we have:

We know that Tyler's brother earns a 2.5% commission on what he sells.

We know he sold $ 900.

Now we just have to find out what that percentage was.

To do this we must multiply the percentage by the total, and divide it by 100:

(2,5,900): 100

2250: 100 = 22.50

This way we verify that the correct answer is $ 22.50.

Answer 2

Tyler’s brother made $22.50 in commission. $900x 0.025= $22.50
