Answer:
Jason earned $459.6 from that sale.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find out how much Jason made we need to calculate how much 40% of 1,149 is. We can use a rule of three for that in such a way that 1,149 relates to 100% such as 'x' relates to 40%. So we have:
1149 -> 100%
x -> 40%
100*x = 1149*40
100*x = 45960
x = 45960/100 = $459.6
Jason earned $459.6 from that sale.
