A salesperson earns 4% commission on furnace sales
The furnace sales have worth $33,000
We need to find the commission that the salesperson earns
∵ The salesperson earns 4% commission on furnaces sale
∵ The furnaces sale have worth $33,000
- Find the 4% of 33,000
∴ The salesperson earns 4% of 33,000
∵ 4% × 33,000 = \frac{4}{100}1004 × 33,000 = 1320
∴ The salesperson earns $1320
The commission that the salesperson earns on the sale is $1320
∵ The salesperson doubles his sales of furnaces
∴ The commission would be double
That because the commission is a constant percent from his sales of furnaces, so if the amount of his sales of furnaces doubles , then his commission also doubles, it is a direct proportion relationship
Commission = constant (4%) × amount of furnaces sale
The commission would be double when he doubles his sales of furnaces
