Answer:

No of clothes to be sold to gain $6000=20,000

Given:

Base salary = $4000

Rate of Commission = 10%

Amount salesman wants to earn in May = $6000

To find:

How much clothing units needed to be sold in order gain $6000 in may

<u>Step by Step Explanation: </u>

Solution;

According to the formula;

\text { Amount earned through commission }=\text { Total amount earned - Base salary }

=6000 - 4000 = 2000

Also we know,  

\text { Amount earned through commission }=\text { Rate of Commission } \times \text { clothing to be sold }

Let the commission amount be x

10 \% \times x=2000

10 / 100 \times x=2000

0.1 \times x=2000

x=20,000 \div 0.1

x=20,000

Result:

Hence, the clothing to be sold in order to earn $6000 is 20,000 units.

igomit [66]

Answer:

2 4/16 = 2 1/4 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The pointer is 4 of the smallest units above 2. There are 16 of those small units. Each 2 of those units is 1/8 pound, so when the pointer is on a multiple of 2 units, it is on a multiple of 1/8 pound. No guesswork is required to choose the correct weight to the nearest 1/8 pound.

2 4/16 = 2 1/4 lb . . . . the scale reading to the nearest 1/8 pound.
