Answer: The price of the torch is 2 and 2/2.5 is 80% or 8/10th of the total price.
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the price of the battery
x + 1.50 is the price of the torch
x + (x + 1.50) is 2.50
x + (x + 1.50) = 2.50
2x = 2.50 - 1.50
2x = 1
x = 1/2
x = 0.50
The price of the torch is 2 and 2/2.5 is 80% or 8/10th of the total price.

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
m: original quantity of merchandise sold (in $)
We then have the following idea:
(original amount) (percent) = new amount
The new amount is the amount that Jacqueline earns for 12% of the commission on sales.

Clearing m we have:

Answer:
The equation that solves the problem is:

The amount she sold is:
