CHECK THE COMPLETE QUESTION
Lin is shopping for a couch with her dad and heard him ask the salesperson “how much is your commission?” The salesperson says that her commission is 5 1/2% of the selling price. A.How much commission will the salesperson earn by selling a couch for $495?
B.How much money will the store get from the sale of the couch?
From the question, the commission of the salesperson is 5 1/2 % , we can convert to improper fraction as 11/5%, then we can convert to decimal by dividing the numerator by denominator which is 5.5% , we can convert from percentage by saying(5.5%/100)
= 0.055
A)How much commission will the salesperson earn by selling a couch for $495?
His Commission will be
(0.055 x $495 )
= $27.23
B.How much money will the store get from the sale of the couch?
Since we know this Commission as $27.23, then the amount the store get from sale will be
(difference between the commission and the selling price)
($495.00- $27.23)
= $467.77
